What is Services and Factory in AngularJS ?
Services are singleton objects. In other words, It’s javascript function to perform a specific task. Angular allow us to use these services with controllers, service, filter or directive.
Whenever we want to use service with the above components, we will have to inject the service name along with the component. By doing so, component ask angular to load that particular service in the application. This method of injecting service is called dependency injection.

How to use Service with Components?
To use a service, you will have to add it as a dependency with a component such as controller, filter or service. To add a service with component, you have to pass it as an argument.
For Example:
App.controller(“controllerName”, function($scope, $service))
{
});
In the above example we injected our $service along with the controller.
