This is the code segment that is throwing an error:
public class FunFacts extends ActionBarActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_fun_facts);
// Declare our view variables and assign them the views from the layout file.
final TextView factLabel = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.factTextView);
Button showFactButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.showFactButton);
View.OnClickListener listener = new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// The button was clicked to update the fact label with a new fact
String fact = "Ostriches can run faster then horses";
factLabel.setText(fact);
}
};
showFactButton.setOnClickListener(listener);
}
These are the errors: Error:(20, 64) error: cannot find symbol variable factTextView and Error:(21, 59) error: cannot find symbol variable showFactButton
