A) File Structure - top

Android projects are the projects that eventually get built into an .apk file that you install onto a device. They contain things such as application source code and resource files. Some are generated for you by default, while others should be created if required. The following directories and files comprise an Android project:

src/

    Contains stub Activity file, which is stored at src/your/package/namespace/ActivityName.java. All other source code files go here as well.

bin/

    Output directory of the build. This is where you can find the final .apk file and other compiled resources.
	

assets/

    Store raw asset files. Files that you save here are compiled into an .apk file as-is, and the original filename is preserved. In this game, this directory stores fonts, images and maps of every levels

res/

    Contains application resources, such as drawable files, layout files, and string values. Details below
		

		
anim/ - For XML files that are compiled into animation objects
		
drawable/ - For bitmap files (PNG, JPEG, or GIF), 9-Patch image files, and XML files that describe Drawable shapes or Drawable objects that contain multiple states (normal, pressed, or focused).
		
layout/ - XML files that are compiled into screen layouts (or part of a screen). 
		
menu/ - For XML files that define application menus
		
raw/ - For arbitrary raw asset files. Saving asset files here instead of in the assets/ directory only differs in the way that you access them. These files are processed by aapt and must be referenced from the application using a resource identifier in the R class. In this application, this is place for media, such as MP3 or Ogg files
		
values/ - For XML files that are compiled into many kinds of resource. Unlike other resources in the res/ directory, resources written to XML files in this folder are not referenced by the file name. Instead, the XML element type controls how the resources is defined within them are placed into the R class.
		

		
AndroidManifest.xml
		
    The control file that describes the nature of the application and each of its components. For instance, it describes: certain qualities about the activities, services, intent receivers, and content providers; what permissions are requested; what external libraries are needed; what device features are required, what API Levels are supported or required; and others
		


		
B) Drawable Resource - top

E) Change background of application - top
