How to call a function defined in the controller inside of the view?

Question

I know I can display a scope variable value by doing:

<div> This is my var value: {{myVar}} </div>

Suppose I have this function

$scope.displayVal = function(){
         return myVar+5;
};

Is there a way to call it in a similar way?

Answer 1

<div>{{displayVal()}}</div>

or

<div ng-bind="displayVal()"></div>

If you use Controller as syntax

<div ng-controller="YourController as vm">
    <div>{{vm.displayVal()}}</div>
</div>
