Android | Display multiplication table of a number

Difficulty Level : Basic
Last Updated : 07 Dec, 2021

Given a number, the task is to display the multiplication table of this number using the Android App.

Steps to build app:

STEP-1: Open activity_main.xml file and add TextView, EditText, and a Button
STEP-2: Assign ID to each component
STEP-3: Now, open up the MainActivity file and declare the variables.
STEP-4: Read the values entered in the EditText boxes using an id that has been set in the XML code above.
STEP-5: Add a click listener to the Add button
STEP-6: When the Add button has been clicked we need to Multiply the values and store it in Buffer
STEP-7: Then show the resultant output in the TextView by setting the buffer in the TextView.

Implementation:

<!-- First make the layout file xml and add button, edit text, text view -->

    <!-- Add the button for run table logic and print result-->

    <!-- edit Text for take input from user-->
    <!-- give the id editText-->
    <EditText

        app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
        tools:ignore="UnknownId" />
</android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>

Filename: MainActivity.Java

// Build the java logic for multiplication table

package com.example.windows10.table;

public class MainActivity
    extends AppCompatActivity
    implements View.OnClickListener {
 
    // define the global variable
 
    // variable number1, number2 for input input number
    // Add_button, result textView

    Button button;
    TextView result;
    int ans = 0;
 
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)

        // by ID we can use each component
        // whose id is assigned in the XML file

            // get the input number from editText
