Layouts

No code needed! See if you can create a new project and add an image to the layout XML file using an ImageView. Then add an EditText field below the image that lets you type in a caption.

Java

Add a label (TextView) to a layout with an input field (EditText) and button below it. See if you can get the EditText and Button on the same line. Then add an onClickListener to the button that takes the text entered in the EditText and sets it as the text for the TextView.
