WPF binding inotifypropertychanged example

In the previous wpf tutorial we learned about WPF Data Binding, different binding modes in WPF, One Way WPF DataBinding simple example. In this article we will learn about INPC data binding in WPF with an example c#. 

Why use INotifyPropertyChanged with bindings in WPF?
It is possible that more than one person will be editing or adjusting the data that is displayed in our program. If the underlying data changes, we want our view to be updated. There we will use wpf inotifypropertychanged observablecollection.

INotifyPropertyChanged requires that we add a using statement for SystemComponentModel and it requires that we implement an event. The event we must implement is called PropertyChanged; it is of type PropertyChangedEventHandler. We're going to call PropertyChanged each time one of our properties is updated. To facilitate that, we're going to use a helper method called OnPropertyChanged. 

OnPropertyChanged uses the CallerMemberName and that requires a using statement for System.Runtime.CompilerServices and what that does is it passes in the name of the property that calls this method. Unfortunately, we can no longer use automatic properties because we need to call the OnPropertyChanged method every time we call the setter. Thus, we will create a backing variable for each of the properties and in the setter, we will call OnPropertyChanged after assigning the passed in value to the underlying backing variable. Find the sample code to implement INotifyPropertyChanged event binding in WPF.
