As part of your pre-work submission, please reflect on the app and answer the following questions below:
Question 1: "What are your reactions to the Android app development platform so far? Compare and contrast Android's approach to layouts and user interfaces in past platforms you've used."
Answer: I am a Micorsoft .net developer and everyday live on Visual Studio. I found Android Studio very much user freindly and was able to relate to Visual Studio. I was able to do this task without much hastle.
Question 2: "Take a moment to reflect on the ArrayAdapter used in your pre-work. How would you describe an adapter in this context and what is its function in Android? Why do you think the adapter is important? Explain the purpose of the convertView in the getView method of the ArrayAdapter."
Answer: ArrayAdapter here act as the bridge between the List View and the Adapter View, it generates the view and supply it to the List View.
Very first time i am working with JAVA, found challenging the edit funtionality with "Start Activity" , I did dleclare the position golbally and passed that to main view .
