       @(Html.C1().InputNumber().Value(0).Format("n0")
       .Min(0) .Max(10)
       .Placeholder("integer between zero and ten")
       )
   </div>
   <div>
       <p> Edit the integer using spinner buttons:</p>
       @(Html.C1().InputNumber().Value(0).Format("n0")
       .Min(0) .Max(10)

       )
   </div>

       <p> Edit currency value:</p>
       @(Html.C1().InputNumber()
           .Value(100).Format("c")
