am trying to send a variable from one activity to another i have set up an intent to send to the second activity. what i want to know is in the second activity what do i need to do in order to be able to use that variable in an if statement?

heres my code

Intent mainIntent = new Intent(TheLeagueActivity.this,IntroActivity.class);

                                    mainIntent.putExtra("leagueCount", leagueCount);

                                    TheLeagueActivity.this.startActivity(mainIntent);

                                    TheLeagueActivity.this.finish();

Answer 1

in onCreate() method of IntroActivity write the following code

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

    Intent intent = getIntent();

    // -1 is default value if no value associated with key "leagueCount"

    int leagueCount = intent.getIntExtra("leagueCount", -1);

   /*
      if leagueCount is not equal to -1
      use leagueCount here

   */
}
