I am learning AngularJs. I am creating my first application on Plunker but it fails to initialize the controller. what am i missing exactly?

Here is the link of my plunker project

    <html ng-app>

<head>
  <script data-require="angular.js@*" data-semver="1.4.0-beta.1" src="https://code.angularjs.org/1.4.0-beta.1/angular.js"></script>
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" />
  <script src="script.js"></script>
</head>

<body ng-controller="testcontroller">
  <h1>Hello {{message}}</h1>
</body>

</html>

var testcontroller = function($scope) {
  $scope.message = "world";
};

<html ng-app>.. here you need to give app name.. – Ved Jan 23 '15 at 6:17
    
That is not necessary as long as i m not using modules – Tuscan Jan 23 '15 at 6:19
    
You need it man.. go to documentation of AngulaJS – Ved Jan 23 '15 at 6:22
    
I got it. using ng-App without module name was working flawlessly with previous releases like 1.3.0-beta.5 but Angular no longer supports this functionality – Tuscan Jan 23 '15 at 6:30

Here is Plunkr

Declare ng-app="myApp"

You are defining controller in wrong way

angular.module('myApp',[])
.controller('testcontroller', function($scope){
  $scope.message="world";
});

is it mandatory to assign a module for the application? because i have seen many examples working with only ng-app – Tuscan Jan 23 '15 at 6:22
    
modular approach separates the code better way docs.angularjs.org/guide/module – Pankaj Parkar Jan 23 '15 at 6:24
    
@Tuscan if it does solve your problem then mark it as correct. Thanks :) – Pankaj Parkar Jun 26 '15 at 17:15
