Work with RadioButton , CheckBox, Spinner , EditText, TextView and Button in Android

In this tutorial, I show you how to use XML to create 

1. RadioButton in XML file, and grouped in a RadioGroup. When Button is clicked, display which RadioButton is selected.
2. CheckBox in XML file, and demonstrates the use of listener to check the CheckBox state – checked or unchecked.
3. EditText in XML file, and how to get value from EditText when we select the Button.
4. Spinner in XML file, how to select one particular from many given values and display which value is selected.
5. TextView in XML file, it is used to show the value or result .
6. Button in XML file, which help us to get values from several widget on a single click.

Now I write here the XML code 

activity_layout_interface.xml

<RelativeLayout xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"

    xmlns:android1="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

            android:layout_weight="1"

            android:entries="@array/ageGroup" />

    </LinearLayout>

    <LinearLayout

        android:id="@+id/linearLayout3"

            android:layout_height="wrap_content"

            android:text="Hobby:: "

            android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium" />

        <CheckBox

    <Button

        android:layout_below="@+id/button1"

        android:layout_marginTop="22dp"

        android:textColor="#CC0000"        

        android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall" />

</RelativeLayout>

The result screen looking like this:

For Spinner I have to create an array in string.XML file.

string.XML

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<resources>

    <string name="app_name">Introduce Layout</string>

    <string name="action_settings">Settings</string>

    <string name="hello_world">Hello world!</string>

    

    <string-array name="ageGroup">

<item>0 to 10</item>

<item>11 to 18</item>

<item>19 to 25</item>

<item>26 to 40</item>

<item>40 to 60</item>

<item>Above 60</item>

</string-array>

</resources>

The yellow portion I have created .
