EX NO: 11 RSS FEED

DATE:

AIM:
To develop an application that makes use of RSS Feed.
ALGORITHM:
1)Open eclipse or android studio and select new android project
2)Give project name and select next
3) Choose the android version.Choose the lowest android version(Android 2.2) and select next
4) Enter the package name.package name must be two word separated by comma and click finish
5)Go to package explorer in the left hand side.select our project.
6)Go to res folder and select layout.Double click and edit the main.xml file.
7) Now select and edit the main activity file.
8)Select run as option and select run configuration
10) Android output is present in the android emulator as shown in below.
