370 PointsHelp! facts.length is giving me a red error message once I type it in Android Studio.
Help! facts.length is giving me a red error message once I type it in Android Studio.
See my code:
public class FunFactsActivity extends Activity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_fun_facts);
// Declare our view variables and assign views from the layout file
final TextView factlabel = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView3);
Button showFactButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button);
View.OnClickListener listener = new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
String[] facts = {
"Quote 1",
"Quote 2",
"Quote 3",
"Quote 4",
"Quote 5",
"Quote 6",
"Quote 7",
"Quote 8",
"Quote 9",
"Quote 10"};
}
//The button was clicked
String Fact = "";
// Randomly Choose a fact
Random randomGenerator = new Random(); //Generates new random number
int randomNumber =randomGenerator.nextInt(facts.length);
fact = Facts [randonNumber];
// Update fact label
factlabel.setText(Fact);
}
};
showFactButton.setOnClickListener(listener);
