Application Development Questions

• Intelligent Search and Siri- Intelligent Search is an excellent mechanism to learn user habits and act on that information- open apps before we need them, make recommendations on places we might like and guide us through our daily lives to make sure we’re where we need to be at the right time.
  Siri is a personal assistant to the users, able to create contextual reminders and search through photos and videos in new ways. Swiping right from the home screen also brings up a new screen that houses “Siri Suggestions,” putting favorite contacts and apps right on your fingertips, along with nearby restaurant and location information and important news.

Session storage is same like local storage but the data is valid for a session. In simple words the data is deleted as soon as you close the browser.

To create a session storage you need to use “sessionStorage.variablename” . In the below code we have a created a variable called as “clickcount”.

If you refresh the browser the count increases. But if you close the browser and start again the “clickcount” variable starts from zero.

if(sessionStorage.clickcount)

{

sessionStorage.clickcount=Number(sessionStorage.clickcount)+1;

}

else

{

sessionStorage.clickcount = 0;

}
