Question

See this picture:

I am designing a sudoku in android, have done the layout like this, so 81 Editext is there. I want to get all the values in the Editext so its difficult to declare and mange 81 views in activity. Can you suggest me a method which is effective for processing my problem?

Answer 1

I would suggest you to use array of Edittext’s like this

EditText text1,text2,text3,text4,text5,text6,text7,text8,text9, text21,text22,text23,text24....text 99;
EditText[] fields={text1,text2,text3,text4,text5,text6,text7,text8,text9, text21,text22,text23,text24....text 99};
//Give your edittext ids in ids array like this
int ids[]={R.id.text1,R.id.text2,R.id.text3.....R.id,text99};
int values[9][9]={};

for(int i=0;i<fiends.length;i++)
{
fields[i]=(EditText)findViewById(ids[i]);
}

To get values use the same way take an array and save those values in array like this.
use for loop and get the values from the textfields and save it in the 2d array as i have declared in values array. I suppose you know how to code the rest of the thing you really want to know please comment, I’ll post the rest.thank u.. I hope this will help you.
