Youtube: Dynamic Buttons with Images: Android Programming (DrBFraser). Make a screen capture of the program running/emulating and some of the code and paste it into a Word document.

Due: Feb. 25
Tuesday:

Test 1 is next Thursday, Feb 27. The material today (2/18) marks the end of the material for the test.

Lab: Car Facts

Uses CarFacts.zip and CarFacts.json
Do not change the contents of the json file. Instead use the java String split method to break the price range into two pieces in order to format it. Also use split to strip off the file extension -- this step is tricky since split takes a regular expression and the period is a special character in regular expressions.
```
            String[] parts2 =aJSON_element.getString("carImage").split("\\.");
        
```
Due: Feb. 25
