I have an angular controller as written below;

```
controllers.controller('editCodeReviewCtrl', ($scope, $rootScope, $modalInstance, User, reviewRequestId, reviewRequestDetail, reviewRequestValue, reviewRequestTitle) -> 
  console.log "reviewRequestvalue", reviewRequestValue
  $scope.reviewRequest = {}
  $scope.reviewRequest.id = reviewRequestId
  $scope.reviewRequest.detail = reviewRequestDetail
  $scope.reviewRequest.value = '25.0'
  $scope.reviewRequest.title = reviewRequestTitle
  $scope.values = [
    {value: '10.0'},
    {value: '25.0'},
    {value: '50.0'} ]
)

```

And my view template looks like the below;

```
    <select ng-model="reviewRequest.value" ng-options="ele.value for ele in values" name="value" required class="friendly-margin pull-right">
    </select>

```

I would expect that my drop down would have default value set, in the example case here it should be set to '25.0' but I'm not observing that behavior in the browser. 

notice the html that is being output

```
<select ng-model="reviewRequest.value" ng-options="ele.value for ele in values" name="value" required="" class="friendly-margin pull-right ng-pristine ng-valid ng-valid-required ng-touched">
<option value="?" selected="selected" label=""></option>
<option value="0" label="10.0">10.0</option>
<option value="1" label="25.0">25.0</option>
<option value="2" label="50.0">50.0</option>
</select>

```

What direction to take this debugging? 

i've looked at this post as well, [how to use ng-option to set default value of select element](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17329495/how-to-use-ng-option-to-set-default-value-of-select-element) which appears consistent with how I've written my own code.
