Up through this point, all of the examples in this tutorial have used the standard Account controller to define the underlying logic of each page.

• Creating a Custom Controller Class
• Defining Getter Methods
• Defining Action Methods
• Defining Navigation Methods
• Mass-Updating Records with a Custom List Controller
