New puzzle "Shataka" published

I have published a new math puzzle "Shataka" in google play.

This app has a 9 cell empty grid and 9 numbers. Your aim is to drag and drop these numbers into the grid so that each row adds to 100 and each column adds to 100.

e.g. In the screen shot above middle column has 87 and 9. So to make column sum 100, you need 100-(87+9). That is 4. And we do have a 4. So drag and drop this 4 in second column. Next first row will have 4 and 28. Hence it needs a 100 -(4+28) which is 68. Drop 68 in first row and first column.

So now you can see that this game is getting interesting.

The screen shot is of level 1. And as you can see, 3 numbers are already given to you. So you need to solve for remaining 6 numbers. In level 2, only 2 numbers are given.

In level 3, 1 number of solution is given. After 3rd level, solution is not given because by then you will not need it. :)

Another helpful feature is after you complete a row or a column, its sum is shown in a popup.

What are you waiting for? Download the app from google play and play non-stop.

Copy to clipboard

In my upcoming app, I have codes which I display. These are some times lengthy, and I want the app to be able to copy this to clipboard. Once it is in clipboard, users can paste it anywhere. So how do you copy some text from your app to clipboard. You need to use clipboard manager. Clipboard Manager This class sets and gets data for the clipboard using Clipdata objects.  You can get the object of this class using system service.  - using statement context.getSystemService(Context.CLIPBOARD_SERVICE) Example I have a dummy project with a button, onclick of which copies content to clipboard. Here is my activity file package com . hegdeapps . testapp ; import android.content.ClipData ; import android.content.ClipboardManager ; import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity ; import android.os.Bundle ; import android.view.View ; import android.widget.Button ; import android.widget.TextView ; public class MainActivity extends ...

Drawables in Android - Layer drawable

Let us see how to use layer drawable. You can have two or more bitmaps on different layers to create such a drawable Using xml : You should use layer-list in your xml file to create layerdrawable. Here is layer.xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"> <item> <bitmap android:src="@drawable/whiteicon" android:gravity="top|left"/> </item> <item> <bitmap android:src="@drawable/blueicon" android:gravity="top|left"/> </item> <item> <bitmap android:src="@drawable/redicon" android:gravity="top|left"/> </item> </layer-list> We are using three different bitmaps whiteicon.png, redicon.png and blueicon.png which are present in /res/drawable/mdpi folder. All these are of different sizes and aligned to top left. Thi...

Using a list fragment with cursor adapter

All these days, I avoided using fragments. But then I realized for my this particular applications fragments are ideal. I have a master - detail list in my app. Let us say you want to have two fragments - one is a fragment which contains a list of elements and second one expands one element of the list. Both of them share the same cursor from the activity. Let us start with list fragment. Do not try creating list fragment using a wizard. It unnecearrily adds too many methods and classes. Let us start writing our own fragment like this class MyListFragment extends ListFragment { } Next using code menu override option, override the following method onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) This method should be used for inflating the layout file for the fragment.  I have a framelayout in parent activity of this fragment with the id as container. So I will specify that for inflating. The framelayout will be the paren...
