Explanation of Response, Data, and Callback.

Can someone explain in further detail where Response, Data, and Callback came from? Are these all built in arguments of Angular? What is the meaning of each of these?

So when you are using an app built with angular it is going to have a relationship with a server someplace. Your actions will elicit a request to the server for data. The server will send a response back (there are a ton). The callback will be the function that uses that response either successfully or unsuccessfully.
