1. MVC Paradigm
The MVC paradigm breaks applications or interfaces into three parts: the model, the view, and the controller.
A --> 25 %
B --> 60 %
C --> 15 %
Model
Users interact with a controller (e.g., buttons), and make changes to the model (e.g., data), which is then reflected in the view (e.g., graph).
Control
View(s)
Draw
Graph

2. MVC Relationships
The Controller has references to both the view and the model; the controller is the base of the triad.
The Model might have a reference to the view, to allow for notification of changes. The model does not know who controls it, however.
The View has a reference to the model, for gathering data. View also has reference to the Controller, to notify of successful updates. (References are minimal, perhaps to a base class, to allow swapping of controls.)

private int value;
//constructor
public Counter(int v){ value = v;}
//set a value
public void setValue(int v) {value = v;}
//get current value
public int getValue() {return value;}
//increment the counter

//decrement the counter
