As you can see, I want to make the answer in the first Question to be Mercury or Venus,the 2nd Question is Jupiter and the 3d Question has 5 Answers "Atlantic Ocean or Arctic Ocean or Indian Ocean or Pacific Ocean or Southern Ocean"
how can i make it to work ? Thank you.

Basically: by changing your data model.
You see, you create your classes to "model" reality. If you want to allow for multiple answers, then a simple one to one mapping (as QuestionModel implies) simply doesn't work. Then your model should be 1:n, like 1 question string, but the answers could be a List<String> for example. For questions with only one answer, that list simply contains only a single entry.
That is the way to go there: first you think up how your data needs to be organized, then you build everything, including your UI structures around that.

#GhostCat is correct, you must analize before implementing. For your specific situation i'm thinking that Enumerations might be helpful. I am not entirely clear about your goal but that is how i would initially approach it.
And to generalize it in your QuestionModel class I would first create an Interface to describe any possible answer.
interface AnswerInterface {
val value: String
}
I would use generics that extend this interface and my QuestionModel then would become as this.
class QuestionModel<QuestionAnswer : AnswerInterface>(
var question: String,
vararg answers: QuestionAnswer
)
The QuestionAnswer can be any class that implements the AnswerInterface and the varard means i can have any number of intances as answers.
With this in mind, my answers enum would be:
enum class PlanetAnswers(override val value: String) : AnswerInterface {
VENUS("Venus"),
MERCURY("Mercury"),
JUPITER("Jupiter")
}
Finally, everything ties together like this:
val question1 = QuestionModel("One planet between Earth and Sun?", PlanetAnswers.VENUS, PlanetAnswers.MERCURY)
val question2 = QuestionModel("The 5th planet from the Sun?", PlanetAnswers.JUPITER)
I have a question and any number of answers, but they all must come from the same enum. I can create more enums and then create more questions with different set of answers.

How to update method to return updated information from textwatcher after pressing button

I have declared my variable, 'changed' too null so that I can check if it changes when the edittext is changed,
The problem I think is, when I press either the save button or the cancel button, it will always produce the value null, as upon clicking the button it is still null. However, I thought that the textwatcher would listen to the EditText and even if nothing was changed in the EditText it would by default change the SetChanged() to false as it provided "live updates", however clearly this isn't the case, am I doing something wrong? or am I supposed to approach it in a different way?, is there some way of refreshing it?
Advise would be greatly appreciated.
(P.S Some code was deleted to reduce the size and make it look easy on the eye, so excuse me for any missing braces. Furthermore, the activity does run properly as it shows the layout.However upon pressing any of the buttons it causes it to crash.)
public class EditNewItemActivity extends AppCompatActivity{
private Boolean changed = null;
private TextView title,content;
private Button saveBtn,cancelBtn;
private String date;
private int id;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_edit_item);
title = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.editItemTitle);
content = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.editItemDescription);
saveBtn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.editItemSaveBtn);
cancelBtn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.editItemCancelBtn);
Bundle extras = getIntent().getExtras();
title.setText(extras.getString("title"));
content.setText(extras.getString("content"));
date = extras.getString("date");
id = extras.getInt("id");
GenericTextWatcher textWatcher = new GenericTextWatcher();
title.addTextChangedListener(textWatcher);
content.addTextChangedListener(textWatcher);
ClickEvent clickEvent = new ClickEvent();
saveBtn.setOnClickListener(clickEvent);
cancelBtn.setOnClickListener(clickEvent);
}
private class ClickEvent implements View.OnClickListener{
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
switch (v.getId()){
case R.id.editItemSaveBtn:
save();
break;
case R.id.editItemCancelBtn:
cancel();
break;
}
}
}
private void cancel() {
if (getChanged() == null){
//This was used to simply verify that getchanged was still null.
}
if (title.getText().toString() != "" || content.getText().toString() != ""){
if (getChanged() == false) {
// if nothing has been changed let it cancel etc
}else {
}
}
}
private void save() {
if (tempTitle != "" || tempContent != "") {
if(getChanged() == true){
}
}
public Boolean getChanged() {
return changed;
}
public void setChanged(Boolean changed) {
this.changed = changed;
}
private class GenericTextWatcher implements TextWatcher{
#Override
public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count, int after) {
Log.v("Beforetext:", s.toString());
EditNewItemActivity editItem = new EditNewItemActivity();
editItem.setChanged(false);
}
#Override
public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {
Log.v("afterTextChanged:", s.toString());
EditNewItemActivity editItem = new EditNewItemActivity();
editItem.setChanged(true);
Log.v("Status:", editItem.getChanged().toString());
}
}

You had change the changed. But which you changed is in your new EditNewItemActivity not in your current page.
This is where you made mistake (beforeTextChanged and afterTextChanged in your GenericTextWatcher):
EditNewItemActivity editItem = new EditNewItemActivity();
editItem.setChanged(false); //or true
You should just call:
setChanged(false); // or true
In fact, you should not new an activity yourself, activity must be create by the Android Framework so that it can be managed by the system.

Crash if digit is more than 9

My app has an input where the user can enter a port number,I tried out of curiosity inputting more than 9 digits of number (Ex: 1234567890),and the app will crash.How do I prevent it from crashing?
EDIT
I am using Java language for Android

android:background="#android:drawable/edit_text"
android:maxLines="1"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:inputType="number"
android:digits="0123456789."/>
This is the part I'm having problem at

#Fay Zan
Basically you don't want user to input more than 9 digits for your field,
This can be achieved using two ways programmatically or using layout views properties,
In you xml simple give this attribute to your EditText
android:maxLength="9"
OR programmatically by checking the length of your field. for example suppose the id of your field is #id+/portNo
then do validation like this
private EditText mportNo;
inside your onCreate()
mportNo = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.portNo);
String portValue = mportNo.getText().toString();
if(portValue.length() > 9) {
// throw error
}

I Assumed you are using EditText. so you need to use addTextChangedListener().
Try the following way,
YOUR_EDIT_TEXT.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher()
{
public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {}
public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start,int count, int after){}
public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start,int before, int count)
{
if(s.length() > 9)
{
//Do your stuff .
// You may show the intimation to user like don't try with more than 9 digits
}
else
{
//Do your stuff
}
}
});
This may helps you.

How to make a random number only once in an android app?

I'm developing a "guess the number" app, it generates a random number between 1 and 10,000 and you have to try guessing, it will tell you if your prediction it is too big , etc
But when you press the button to probe your number, it generates a new random number every time you press the button.Keep in mind i'm a newbie so i'm learning java for android, but i want to know how to make this simple app.
Here's my code:
package com.boodle.guessthenumber;
import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.layout_main);
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_main, menu);
return true;
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
int id = item.getItemId();
//noinspection SimplifiableIfStatement
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
public void guess (View view){
EditText textguess = (EditText) findViewById ( R.id.textguess );
TextView resulta = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.resulto);
String guessStr = textguess.getText().toString();
int theGuess = Integer.parseInt(guessStr);
int rand = (int) (Math.random()*10000+1);
if (theGuess > rand) {
resulta.setText(textguess.getText() + " is too big" );
}
if (theGuess < rand) {
resulta.setText(textguess.getText() + " is too small" );
}
if (rand == theGuess){
resulta.setText(textguess.getText() + " is the answer" );
}
}
}

Create rand as a member variable in your class:
public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
int rand;
initialize in onCreate():
rand = (int) (Math.random()*10000+1);
remove the initialization in your guess() function:
// not needed anymore:
// int rand = (int) (Math.random()*10000+1);
To make the number persist during orientation changes, add this code to your Activity:
#Override
public void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
savedInstanceState.putInt("rand", rand);
super.onSaveInstanceState(savedInstanceState);
}
and then in onCreate() change your random number generation code to this:
if (savedInstanceState != null)
rand = savedInstanceState.getInt("rand");
else
rand = (int) (Math.random()*10000+1);

After you generate the number you have to store it in a persistent storage, for which you have many options: SharedPreferences (which can be passed between activities), a file, SQLiteDatabase...
When the activity starts, only if the number is not there - generate it!

The solution would be to create your random number in onCreate such that it is only created once and then simply access that variable in your guess method. Modify your code as follows:
public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity
{
private int rand;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.layout_main);
rand = (int) (Math.random()*10000+1);
}
// rest of code...
And then in guess remove the initialization and simply access the variable by name:
public void guess (View view)
{
// rest of code...
//int rand = (int) (Math.random()*10000+1);
if (theGuess > rand) {
resulta.setText(textguess.getText() + " is too big" );
}
// rest of code...
}
Also, just as a note, it is not necessary to post all the import statements and other similar code. Only posting the code relevant to your issue is the best way to invite concise answers.

The following solution will generate the number when the activity is started and the number will NOT change when the user rotates the screen. It will also make the activity a little bit more effective.
public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
TextView mResult;
EditText mTextGuess;
private int mNumber;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.layout_main);
// you find your views in onCreate once, they don't change, it's effective
mResult = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.resulto);
mTextGuess = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.textguess);
// BRO-TIP: Google "Butterknife".
// Now you need to initialize the random number
// BUT you want it to stay the same when user rotates the screen, right?
if (savedInstanceState == null) {
// when the user first opens the app, generate new number
mNumber = (int) (Math.random()*10000+1);
} else {
// otherwise load the previously generated number from saved state
mNumber = savedInstanceState.getInt("mNumber");
}
}
#Override
protected void onSaveInstanceState(Bundle outState) {
super.onSaveInstanceState(outState);
// here you save the number across orientation changes
outState.putInt("mNumber", mNumber);
}
public void guess(View v) {
int theGuess = Integer.parseInt(mTextGuess.getText().toString());
// else-if is better for you: when the first is true, you don't need to check the others and so on...
if (theGuess > rand) {
mResult.setText(textguess.getText() + " is too big" );
} else if (theGuess < rand) {
mResult.setText(textguess.getText() + " is too small" );
} else if (rand == theGuess){
mResult.setText(textguess.getText() + " is the answer" );
}
}
}

How do i handle touch events properly in android?

Scope of the project
When a user touches the Android screen with two fingers, draw a "Frame" at each touch location with a "cursor" for each frame. Each frame is a custom slider that the cursor will move up and down. All the way up will be 100%, middle will be 0% and all the way down will be -100%. This will be used to control small motors, similar to tank turning, each touch controls a separate motor (sending signals over bluetooth). After a two touch and everything is drawn, I want to be able to lift off either finger, BUT keep the cursor at what ever location it was last at, while the other finger is free to move its cursor. When the last finger is lifted off, everything "hides" and resets to 0%.
Functionality Wanted
On two finger touch, draw separate .pngs under the touch location
After the frames and cursors are drawn, keep track of where they are relative to the frame to determine the percentage.
If a finger is lifted off, keep that fingers cursor at last known location, but the other finger can move it's cursor. Also if the finger is put back down it should be able to move its cursor again.
If both fingers are lifted off of the screen, hide everything and reset percentages to 0%
Functionality Obtained
I can draw the frames and cursors on multitouch
Positions and percentages work fine
Cursors do move properly
What doesn't work
I am unsure if I should have one custom class that handles both touch event or if i should have 2 instances of the custom class each handling their own touch events (I have tried both, the only way i get any "real" functionality is with 1 custom class handling both touch events, the other way doesn't work as intended)
When I only have 1 custom class, It works great, but I have it "hide" everything if both fingers are not on the screen, and sometimes android registers that I have lifted a finger off the screen and this causes me a lot of issues when the frames hide then re appear in a different location
When I use 2 custom classes I touch each custom class would have its own touch event, and i wouldn't have to worry about multitouch if i split the classes evenly between the screen. This was not the case, still need to deal with multitouch
Can someone explain to me how android handles their touch events. from what I have done, it seems if i lay down finger 1, the finger 2, the first finger will register a "ACTION_DOWN" and the second will register a "ACTION_POINTER_2_DOWN", BUT if i life off my first finger, my second finger is "demoted" and now all of the events my second finger registers does not related to "ACTION_POINTER_2" and instead will be "ACTION_DOWN, ACTION_UP, etc". Is this correct?

Any other classes not listed I didn't believe needed to be, but if they are needed please let me know.
Any help is much appreciated

You're going to need to save the pointerId's of each point and compare them to the new Id's given with each MotionEvent. It's slightly tricky to explain, so I'll point you to this ADB Post that explains it much better than I could. Long story short? Multitouch can be tricksy, but it's not as bad as it looks at first glance.
