Example
A variable named "color" exists in both the controller's scope and in the
rootScope:
<body ng-app="myApp">
<p>The rootScope's favorite color:</p>
<h1>{{color}}</h1>
<div ng-controller="myCtrl">
<p>The scope of the controller's favorite color:</p>
<h1>{{color}}</h1>
</div>
<p>The rootScope's favorite color is
still:</p>
<h1>{{color}}</h1>
<script>
var app = angular.module('myApp', []);
app.run(function($rootScope) {
$rootScope.color = 'blue';
});
app.controller('myCtrl',
function($scope) {
$scope.color = "red";
});
</script>
</body>
