To set the buttonLabel String variable to the new String resource we should use this format which returns the string value associated with a particular resource ID.
String string = getString(R.string.NAME_OF_STRING_RESOURCE);
In the above code snippet R represents the Resources
string identifies the type of the resource in this case String resource
NAME_OF_STRING_RESOURCE is the name of String resource in this case morePuppies
See the below code snippet on how to approach this challenge and let us know.
Button loadPuppiesButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.puppiesButton);
String buttonLabel = getString(R.string.morePuppies);
loadPuppiesButton.setText("LOAD");
