Adding text box
                 Adding a Radio Button

                 Radio buttons are used when the user has to make a selection among multiple choices or option.
                 It is generally used for selection of gender, quiz questions, etc. For example, for accepting the
                 gender the programmer needs to specify two radio buttons “Male” and “Female”, which belong
                 to the same group called “Gender” so that while inputting data a user will be able to select either

                 “Male” and “Female” but not both.
                 Syntax:
                 <INPUT TYPE= “RADIO” NAME=“Gender” VALUE=“Male” CHECKED> Male

                 <INPUT TYPE=“RADIO” NAME=“Gender” VALUE=“Female”> Female

                 TYPE=“RADIO” indicates that the form element is radio button.
                 NAME=“Gender” is the name of the radio button group.
                 VALUE=“Male” and VALUE=“Female” signifies that one radio button has value “Male” and the
                 other has the value=“Female”.

                 CHECKED  attribute  selects  the  specific  radio  button  by  default.  Here,  ‘Male’  radio  button  is
                 checked by default.
