       Android mobile phones dominate the mobile smartphone market, surpassing even Apple’s iPhone.
There are hundreds of millions of mobile phones using the Android operating system in over
190 countries around the world. Every day, a million new users begin using their Android phones to
surf the Web, to e-mail friends, and to download apps and games. In fact, in the Google Play Store
alone, there are 1.5 billion downloads per month of Android games and applications. If you include
other web sites that offer Android games and apps for sale, such as Amazon Appstore for Android,
then the number is even higher.
       In this book, you will learn about the Android Software Development Kit (SDK). You will learn how
to set up the Android development environment. You will also learn about the major components
of this environment, such as Eclipse. We then go through the creation and deployment of a simple
“Hello World” program for Android, to both a virtual Android emulator program and also a real
Android device.
