Dear u need pc for ur programming. i'll recommend android Studio for you. go download it, is free on ur PC
Re: Can Programimg Be Done On Android? by Greatfes17: 10:20pm On Jun 22, 2015
To develop full fledged apps, you certainly need pc. But if you are just learning hoe to program, Android can be helpful. Although it depends on the language you are learning.

Serious programming no... After some trial. but if you are a beginner there a various apps for testing simple code script and small work. For python u can use QPython, I actually used this to create a page in a ping pong game I copied the source code online.
Don't give up...

What app can you use to program and run java codes on Android.
Re: Can Programimg Be Done On Android? by Greatfes17: 10:30am On Jun 23, 2015
I will personally recommend python(3) (i.e. qpython(3)) for some reasons:
1. Simple to learn
2. Easy to use
3. Cross Platform (runs everywhere)
4. Standard library
5. Fully documented

Note: Am using qpython3 on Android and I was suprised to see that the same code runs perfectly on my PC when I finally got one.
So far no regrets.

Kivy is also an alternative. I've not used it though.
Google is you friend.

Just as someone said above, you can run/learn basic coding on Android but for serious larger coding use PC.
You can start with Python Programming language on your Android device. Configuration is as simple as just downloading and installing QPython app (for Python 2 or 3) from Google store.

Wow,maybe i got a mate,drop you contact so we can get intouch and learn together..I ventured into programming last week and believe me it's not that tough as hyped,except for c++ with it's over-annoying syntax..I already have basic knowledge of c++,php,python,java,javascript,html5,css and bootstrap.I tried them out cos i'm looking for one that will fit my project.
@bolded,,if for learning,you're more than equipped.I started mine with nokia x2-01 and finished coding my homepage with html and bootstrap last night.

@bolded,,the language you choose depends on your target market..But start with python,it's not too tough..And my advice is always do the practicals,try coding the examples.It will help you understand the syntax..Look up java2s.com,they covered example in all the major languages,you'll be impressed if you're the type that prefer practicals to theory.


so what's your target market?

I understand c++ more than java, I use c4droid and cppdroid complier it has been an enjoyable ride, I find java too hard but I will still revisit it, my qpython app is not responsive, if not I would have been a guru in python, let's share ideas, I would like to delve more into programming any suggestions will be welcomed.
Ps:I use android.

if you understand c++ java shouldn't be a problem..Those c++ syntax piss me a lot..just a single typo nd the whole code ain't working...how far have you gone in c++?

I don't know but it might be because of the wacky Java editor and compiler(AIDE) I use I can't seem to do anything with it, do you have any suggestions for a java ide for Android?

i don't..maybe you should ask the gurus in the block..Javanian might be of help..

Do you know the concepts of creating an app?

^^^Is someone looking for an IDE on android device to develop android apps? if that is correct please check out https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aide.ui&hl=en
But if it is on pc, please use Android studio or Eclipse.
Re: Can Programimg Be Done On Android? by beatsbyj2g(m): 5:13pm On Jun 24, 2015
It is very possible bro......

Java/Android Programming:

Develop Android apps on Android
AIDE

AIDE is a monster of an app. It allows you to program Android applications directly on your Android device. That way, you basically cut out the middleman of having to use a computer at all. AIDE is fully compatible with Eclipse projects, so it’s easy to transfer your projects from your computer to your phone.
Additionally, AIDE comes with a lot of features. One of the more important features is Dropbox compatibility. Rather than using up phone storage, you can store all of your projects on Dropbox and easy sync back your changes.
Overall, AIDE is a beautiful IDE and is a really cool way to create Android Apps directly on your device. Plus, it’s FREE!

I dont know the qpython series you are using(3.X or 2.X). However, if you use 3.X, google "Haltermanpythonbook.pdf." I have forgotten the address but it is about 3 mb in size. I will personally recommend it. The tutorial found at the official python website is worth embracing.

Specifying the version can help in recommending better books.

I dont learn with videos dear.

Am still learning though.

Yes qpython 3 is the latest.

google "dive into python 3.pdf" its worth reading.

Raw coding can be done on android or any phone that can read and write .txt file. All you need to know is the basics of the programing language e.g you can code HTML, CSS effortlessly on android text document and rename it so it displays your codes but then it gets less convenient so the best thing to do is transfer on a PC.
