Some Notes on Using the Downloaded Code

There is a significant amount of sample code in this book. The code is downloadable from the Apress web site: there will be a link from this book's individual page.

Navigate to the Apress web site, and look for “Beginning Android Tablet Programming.” I would expect it to be here: www.apress.com/9781430237839, but links are subject to change. There will be a link to download the source code, and it will be in a single zip file, probably BA3TPSource.zip.

Setting Up Eclipse

All the coding examples (except those in Python) are written with Eclipse in mind. Chapter 1 will walk you through setting up your Eclipse environment. Go read it now and follow the instructions. I'll wait.
