Programming & learning on Android.

Hi friends,
I assume that on XDA there are some very talented programmers and might be able to guide me with my queries.
So heres the deal. I'm planning to get my hands on learning c#. But the the catch is I want to learn it on my android tablet. The reason why I want to learn it on an Android tablet? Well I am a Computer graphics artist and want to get into apps and game development for android and ubuntu. AND I have time to learn programming only after my working hrs i.e at home. So I want put my galaxy tab10.1 to a better more productive use. Obviously I will not be developing apps on my tab because I have xeon and i7 systems at my office to do that.
So I did some Google and found this webpage very usefull for all the programming tools on android.
http://android.appstorm.net/roundups/developer/15-apps-for-programming-on-android/
So can anybody recommend or suggest me on how to start with learning programming on Android?
I think this maybe useful to many other new aspiring programmers.

I am not 100% sure but I believe you need to learn Java to make apps for android.

The point of this thread is "how one can learn and practice various programming languages on the android device itself"
EDIT: I YouTubed for learning c# and found that to begin with c#, if we are Windows OS then .NET visual studio is required and if we are in Ubuntu OS Google mono is required.
I don't if we may need Google mono in android.

C# is not a language you can easily code on android, or code android apps in.
If your looking to make programs for ubuntu and android java really is the best way forward, alot of game engines let you build a game in pure java and then easily convert it to a android game

I was under the impression that while you can get IDE's for a range of languages to do coding etc, if you want to actually make android apps Java really is your best bet

General browsing of XDA would have given you this thread - Android Chef Central

It sounds like he wants to do Android app development/Game development, not ROM development.
For general-purpose app development I would suggest learning Java and the Android SDK. There are numerous books available to help you, for example The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development. Older editions are free but I would recommend getting the newest one since Android is a fast-developing platform. The Android SDK site is also a good place to start.
For game development you have more options. Corona and Cocos2d-x are both cross platform (can deploy to Android and iOS). Corona code is written in Lua, and Cocos2d-x can be written in C++ or Lua. There are also a lot of other options available if you look around.
I'd still recommend learning some basic Android apps before tackling game development, though.

Hi, you can check out the App Development Forums. It has many useful infos and links to Guides. Cheers!

Hi!
If you want to develop with android studio,
you have to learn first java and the basics at xml. I think the best way is to read a book or a tutorial. Better read a new book for android studio because android updates regular with new features.
Thank you.

[Q] Related to Java learning for android app development.

Hello! I have started learning java for android app development. I ve bought this book called Learn Java for android development by Jeff Friesen. I also learn from other sources. But sometimes there are codes, that i cannot understand and i think that I ll never become a good developer.
Does this happen to every newbie? Please give me some tips if you are an experienced developer?

alternative to java
If you have problems learning java try basic4android, and you can develope apps for android in language witch is similar to Basic, easy to learn, but powerful

Have you tried an app tutorial? It might add to your knowledge base.

It is not easy to start learning java with some specific framework (like Android Application Framework).
When something is not clear in the code, i suggest you should try switching to the basic core java stuff and do some tutorials on that.
After that you will have an understanding and more confidence in learning android development.
Good luck.

Thnqq every1
Thnqq every1 for help! I really appreciate u people and i followed ur suggestions now i can do some medium level programming! thnx

In reality learning Java is essential for Android development, as Android apps are primarily written in Java. Alternatively you could look at the Android NDK which allows you to use C/C++ code in your apps. Other possibilities that aren't as straightforward include Python, with PySide or certain HTML5 frameworks that promise cross platform support. Let me know if you still have questions.

Haha, sorry I don't really use Android studio. All I know is that creating android apps uses Java, but if you really want to learn I recommend learning the jest of android studio by looking at a you tube playlist like :
.
Also learning how to code in Java is helpful (probably) :
Learn Java | Codecademy
Learn to code in Java — a robust programming language used to create software, web and mobile apps, and more.

I just want to create professional applications
