📝️️ What are answers ?
Answers are the key parts of your questions to collect the information you need from your respondents.
An answer can be defined as a small module called answer type which provides a unique functionality that can be used to build your questions. ngSurvey provides out of the box a number of answers types that you can use in your questions like for example calendars, radio buttons, signature pads, entry fields, list of items.

In the sample contact form above we used a field, an email validator and a captcha validation answer type to build our question.
