what is the controller's name is used if not provide the controller name when calling the Html.ActionLink helper method?

This question is from the ASP.net MVC basics towards the end. The video instruction does not seem covering this question.

I'm pretty sure this is covered, but I don't recall exactly which video it is in. But when you don't explicitly provide another controller's name, the name of the current controller will be used.

I'm not sure why this was down voted. It's the correct answer. I went ahead and up voted it.

Thanks, Michael. I seem to experience a "drive-by downvoting" (no comment left) every now and then. I invite the voter to leave a message letting me know what was wrong and how I might improve my answer.
