Beginning Android Tablet Programming ознакомит вас с операционной системой Android и даст понятие о базовой структуре ее программ. Вы узнаете, как написать свой первый планшет Android-приложения с нуля. Книга представит вам множество интересных и полностью рабочих приложений. Эти проекты могут стать генератором идей к созданию собственных программ для Android в будущем.Beginning Android Tablet Programming starts off by showing how to get your system ready for Android tablet programming. You won‚Äôt need any previous Android experience, because you‚ Äôll learn all about the basic structure of an Android program and how the Android operating system works and then you‚Äôll learn how to write your first Android tablet application from scratch!Beginning Android Tablet Programming then equips you to build a set of interesting and fully-working Android tablet applications. These projects will give you the inspiration and insights to build your own Android programs in the future.You‚Äôll be introduced to 2D programming, and you‚Äôll see what you can do with a touch screen interface and the Honeycomb SDK. Of course, 3D programming is even more alluring for many programmers. If that includes you, you‚Äôll learn about how Honeycomb has changed the game for Android graphics programming, and get your first taste of 3D programming on an Android tablet.So do you want to write programs that can receive and send reminder messages via SMS? Do you want to write your first 2D or 3D game on Android? Perhaps you‚Äôd like to write an application that sorts out all your contacts for you!
