Android App for Tourist Guide

Android App for Tourist Guide

First, let's create the XML layout file activity_tourist_guide.xml for the activity:

XML Code

<!-- activity_tourist_guide.xml -->
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:padding="16dp"
    tools:context=".TouristGuideActivity">
 
    <ListView
        android:id="@+id/attractions_list_view"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent" />
 
</LinearLayout>
 

Next, let's create the Java code for the activity:

Java Code

import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.AdapterView;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.ListView;
import android.widget.Toast;
 
public class TouristGuideActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
 
    private ListView attractionsListView;
    private String[] attractions;
 
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_tourist_guide);
 
        // Initialize views
        attractionsListView = findViewById(R.id.attractions_list_view);
 
        // Get attractions from resources
        attractions = getResources().getStringArray(R.array.attractions);
 
        // Set up the list view
        ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<>(this,
                android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, attractions);
        attractionsListView.setAdapter(adapter);
 
        // Set item click listener
        attractionsListView.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
                String selectedAttraction = attractions[position];
                showAttractionDetails(selectedAttraction);
            }
        });
    }
 
    private void showAttractionDetails(String attraction) {
        // Perform an action based on the selected attraction
        // For demonstration purposes, a toast message is shown
        Toast.makeText(this, attraction, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }
}
 

In this example, the TouristGuideActivity class extends AppCompatActivity.

Inside the onCreate method, the layout view is initialized, and the attractions are retrieved from the resources as an array of strings.

The list view is set up using an ArrayAdapter to display the attractions. Each item in the list is clickable, and when an item is clicked, the showAttractionDetails method is called.

The showAttractionDetails method performs an action based on the selected attraction. In this example, a toast message is shown with the selected attraction name.

Make sure to add the attractions string array resource to the res/values/strings.xml file:

XML Code

<!-- strings.xml -->
<resources>
    ...
    <string-array name="attractions">
        <item>Eiffel Tower</item>
        <item>Taj Mahal</item>
        <item>Great Wall of China</item>
        <item>Machu Picchu</item>
        <item>Pyramids of Giza</item>
    </string-array>
    ...
</resources>
 
Remember to replace the attractions array with the actual attractions you want to display in your tourist guide app.
This example provides a basic structure for a tourist guide app. You can customize it by adding more features such as displaying attraction details, images, maps, or integrating with external APIs for additional information.
