Cannot resolve symbols factTextView and showFactButton. I'm getting an error on these lines of code.

Not sure what's going on. I'm on the same version of android studio as the guy on the video.

Hey Alex,

Look at the top of the code and check to see if you have the appropriate android packages imported. I believe those methods are in the android.view package. You might have missed a shortcut to import these.

Well, I had it set to add ambiguous imports on the fly, but I guess it failed me. Thanks!
