  • I am new to Android and learning to create fragments in Android by following this
    example: Fragment Navigation Drawer

  • The code between Navigating between Menu Items and Add Navigation Header consists a method getActivity().

  • As the author didn't mentioned where to paste this code, I pasted in my MainActivity.java file

  • Is code between Navigating between Menu Items and Add Navigation Header pasted at correct location by me?

  • In method selectDrawerItem(MenuItem menuItem) there is a comment // Create a new fragment and specify the planet to show based on position
    Does author expects me to add something over here.

  • The project files layout created by me on AndroidStudio is as follow:AndroidStudio Snapshot
