what is x:Code in XAML?

x:Code is a directive element defined in XAML. An x:Code directive element can contain inline programming code. The code that is defined inline can interact with the XAML on the same page. The following example illustrates inline C# code. Notice that the code is inside the x:Code element and that the code must be surrounded by to escape the contents for XML, so that an XAML processor (interpreting either the XAML schema or the WPF schema) will not try to interpret the contents literally as XML.

<Button Name="button1" Click="Clicked" > Click Me! </Button >


void Clicked(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)

{

button1.Content = "Hello World";

}
