Your words exude class. Keep it up. You are different hee

thanks dear.

yattybanana:
you nailed it babe

thank U dear. what more can i say..
U just need experience in things, to understand the rudiments.

it's easier said than done (for all those saying marry the one that loves me)...... all we can ask the good Lord is for him to give us a partner with whom the feelings will be mutual

Jinf:
Hehehe you should join in o.

I got banned for spamming... since when did spamming become an offence on Nairaland¿¿¿

~DavidTheGeek

eyaaa sorry ....no mind those mods e ya. we are solidly behind u......lolss

Jinf:
The color codes are specific codes. You can get them online.

Here's the site i use... It has a list of different colors nd codes you can choose from... http://www.computerhope.com/htmcolor.htm

Save the page on your browser.

~DavidTheGeek

yeah...most certainly. I have saved it. But u didn't explain the basis for these codes.

by the way happy Sunday.

Jinf:
Chai no going back? I have enter one chance of o.

Thanks but i'm turning it down. There's a paid class starting on Whatsapp soon. It's limited, 12 people max. I'll announce the details here when it's set

~DavidTheGeek

lolss...no wahala but u must conclude this benevolence and why are u using another moniker. I but u have like 3.

DavidTheGeek:
Good.

/> is a closing tag.
< is an opening tag.
> i'll call this tag "suspension tag"

For better understanding i'll give examples.
<TextView ....... this means you've started writing codes for textview.

When you open a fridge to take water, you should close it when done abi no be so? That's what /> does. It means you've finished writing the code for TextView.

> is used on a Parent to close and accomodate its children. A viewgroup is a parent, while view objects are its children. Example...

<LinearLayout ...... i'm done writing the codes inside here. Close me>
Add children here.
</LinearLayout>

Ok...about the background and color codes, are they generated randomly or there are specific codes. like if I want the color something else other than red,?

DavidTheGeek:
ASAP.

This tutorial class, though we just started, has started rubbing off on my time & pocket. So i've decided to conclude the tutorial i started here, take a break, do some planning, (thereby giving space for new interested Nairalanders to join and catch up) & proceed in another way.

Dave please how do we send some data across. ....cos this thing, there's no going back o (we must learn it)

Alright, android is based on java basically, which is an object oriented programming language.

There's procedural method of programming and there's object oriented.

One thing common to all programming languages are logic statements
I.e while, if, else, for etc
These are very easy to understand..

Ok...taken. Android runs on java programming language.

the logic statements, is this were algorithms come in?

DavidTheGeek:
That's not an error message.
1. That's a ViewGroup. A view group is a subclass of View and provides invisible container that hold other Views. LinearLayout is a view group that aligns all children in a single direction, vertically or horizontally. (In the above code, it hold a TextView, a textview is for writing texts.)

Simply click menu and select Run to create your first app.

done...thanks

yorex2011:
Thats just to get a feeling of the android setting.
OP would soon be back to continue the tutorials.

Ok...U nko?...U be lecturer 11? Are u into programming too?

Maybe u can just give me a little backdrop. ....I did a little of programming languages and stuffs like that in school, but i couldn't pick a thing so i resorted to hatred for the course as an escape. ....lolss

I just need to understand the basics of what we are doing cos na *follow follow* dey make person fail exam.

yorex2011:
Create a new app, you may have tampered with something, a simple hello world shouldn't be having issues

yeah...I messed up. I noticed when u requested for the main activity.xml codes.

I've fixed it and I succeeded in creating an empty app. is that it?

yorex2011:
If possible post the code of your mainactivity.java, and maybe also your manifest.xml

Ok...this is what I got from mainactivity.java :

package com.mylearning.myfirstapp;

import android.app.*;
import android.os.*;

public class MainActivity extends Activity
{
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
}

DavidTheGeek:
What error messages?
Screenshot if you can.

I can't screen shot. but when I get to the Main.xml page....it shows this :
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:gravity="center">
<TextView android:text="@string/hello_world" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>

I can't seem to create any app...cos the error messages persist .
someone that has done it guide me please.

Am not sure if a nigerian scammer can get hold of such device.

u can never be too sure bro....we can only hope and pray that our banks become proactive in order to curb it in the budding stage

do guys still whistle these days? ?? I doubt. ..see the one that gets me mad

a guy sees a lady walking down the road, he rushes to catch up with her. when that is achieved, this is the pattern of conversation that will follow :

boy: hello gorgeous good evening
girl : hi, good evening
boy : what's ur name, are you just coming home , do u live in this street, where are u from, do u work or school here? ?, etc. ( all in quick successions)

shuuuu!!! my guy u be interviewer or na journalist u be? ? they won't even allow the lady to get used to their uninvited presence before getting started on their yeye missionary journey . Na wa
