Should I use 32-bit Eclipse or 64-bit Eclipse for Android development? Im on a MacBook Pro (Core 2 Duo). Does it matter which version for Android coding?

For developing the android application using eclipse IDE, you need to install the Eclipse. you can download it from this location download the Eclipse. Eclipse classic version is recommended but we are using the Eclipse IDE for JavaEE Developers.
Eclipse Mobile may be used on either Apple or Android smart phones or tablets.
Android Studio is specifically designed to build Android applications but Eclipse is useful for building android as well as other web and desktop applications.
Android Studio is faster than Eclipse. There is no need to add a plugin to Android Studio but if we use Eclipse then we do need to. Eclipse needs many resources to start but Android Studio does not. Android Studio is based on IntelliJ's Idea Java IDE and Eclipse uses the ADT Plugin to develop Android applications.
The Java virtual machine makes the difference between 32bit an 64bit mostly invisible to you. So no, it won't matter much.
The Android SDK will run on either :)
