$scope.todo.name is not working.

When I update $scope.todo.name="abcd" in my mainCtrl and tries to run the project. The initial value doesn't show up in my html page. Instead it is showing {{todo.name}} on my html page. Error message shown in the console is Cannot set property 'name' of undefined. Thanks in advance!

It's possible that your entering the expression outside of the scope. Without seeing your html and angular code it's hard to tell.
