tton loadPuppiesButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.puppiesButton); String buttonLabel = ""; Resources resources = getResources(); buttonLabel = resources.getString(R.string.morePuppies); loadPuppiesButton.setText(buttonLabel);
Button loadPuppiesButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.puppiesButton);
String buttonLabel = "";
Resources resources = getResources();
buttonLabel = resources.getString(R.string.morePuppies);
loadPuppiesButton.setText(buttonLabel);
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
<string name="morePuppies">See More Puppies</string>
</resources>

String buttonLabel = getString(R.string.morePuppies);
getString() is a shortcut for getResources.getString()here. Maybe this is what they want here.
These challenges tend to only accept a specific solution, even though sometimes others are possible.

Button loadPuppiesButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.puppiesButton);
Resources resources = getResources();
String buttonLabel = resources.getString(R.string.morePuppies);
loadPuppiesButton.setText(buttonLabel);
