</LinearLayout>

Answer 1

You can for xml file because it is faster.But if you need then you can do this:

LinearLayout parent=new LinearLayout(this);
RelativeLayout rl1=new RelativeLayout(this);
RelativeLayout rl2=new RelativeLayout(this);
RelativeLayout rl3=new RelativeLayout(this);

You can add buttons and imageview and all.Then add

rl1.addView(bt1);
.......
rl2.addView(img1);
....
rl3.addView(bt2);
.......
parent.addView(rl1);
parent.addView(rl2);
parent.addView(rl3);
