Tell us what’s happening:

Describe your issue in detail here.
Im fine with the coding and followed and understood the inputs and all, but can anyone tell me why its called “radio” button? just a simple question but Im afraid that it would bother me and confuse me in the near future. For example, why cant it be called “single choice button” instead of “radio” button?

***EDIT: " The term “radio button” is derived from the old analog radios, where you could only select one station at a time by pressing the corresponding button ."

Hahaha.

Your code so far
