SECTION A – ANDROID APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT
Attempt ALL questions from Section A. There are FIVE (5) questions in this section. This section is worth 40 marks, or 33.3% of the examination.
Question 1 (Addresses ILO 2)
Android GUIs are constructed using XML layout resources. Figure 1 shows an image of such an XML layout resource file called activity_character_select.xml.
Figure 1: activity_character_select.xml file.
a. Provide the XML code required for activity_character_select.xml to display the GUI shown in Figure 1. For this task, you only need to declare the XML elements (e.g. Views and ViewGroups) and not any attribute-value pairs (e.g.android:orientation=”vertical”).[10 marks]
b. Explain the purpose of the following lines of code, and describe what would happen if you included this code in an onCreate() function in an Activity and ran it.
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
Button btnStartGame = findViewById(R.id.start);
btnStartGame.setText(“Select A Character First”);
btnStartGame.setEnabled(false);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_character_select);[3 marks]

{
// get a handle to the defaults system:
let defaults = UserDefaults.standard
