java code for main activity

public class MainActivity extends Activity { Button btn1; @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {     super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);     setContentView(R.layout.main_activity);//the error point here     btn1 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.step1btn);   } public void nextPage(View view){     Intent StartNewActivity = new Intent(MainActivity.this, Main2Activity.class);     startActivity(StartNewActivity);    }  } 

this is the full log,

Answer 1

In Android Studio version 3.0.0 and above, once we try to add images to drawable folder, it will ask you to 'Choose Destination Directory'. At that time, choose drawable instead of drawable-v24.

Keep Coding........ :)

Answer 2

don't paste your image in drawable(v-24), paste it into the drawable folder and clean the project and then run it will work.
