INTRODUCTION
1.1Overview
In today’s world, Smart phones have changed our lives and have become an indispensable part of
our lives because of its specialty to simplify our routine work and thereby saving our time. A
Smartphone with an Android OS offers excellent functionality to the users offering a distinct
experience. Android is a Linux based operating system and it was bought by Google in 2007.There
are tons of application available and one of the prime reason for this vast number is android being
an open source. On the other hand, android based device like mobile, tab are very user friendly. A
survey has done by “Light Castle Partners” research wing which indicates that though other
operating system mobile users exist but the majority users are goes with android operating system.

Figure 1.1 : A survey result on a random sample of different age groups of mobile phone users in
India, based on their preferred operating systems.

In this context, Project application is developed based on android platform. The name of application
is define as ‘Technical Quiz”. Aims of this project is to develop an android platform supported Quiz
application named “Technical Quiz”. It is an online quiz application where user with admin privilege
can do administrative task like add, delete and edit from application user interface (UI) and
interviewee can participate for MCQ quiz with time limit. So, goals of this project to facilitate users
to configure quizzes as well as giving quizzes with this android based smart phone. User friendly
environment configuration is also another goal for this project application.

1.2 Objectives
The main objective of “Technical Quiz” is to facilitate a user friendly environment for all users and
reduces the manual effort. In past days quiz is conducted manually but in further resolution of the
technology we are able to generate the score and pose the queries automatically. The functional
requirements include to create users that are going to participate in the quiz, automatic score and
report generation and administrative tasks like add, delete, update for admin privilege users. In this
application, all the permissions lies with the administrator i.e., specifying the details of the quiz with
checking result will show to interviewee or not, addition of question and answers, marks for each
question, Set timer for each quiz and generate report with score for each quiz.

2.1.3 Flow Chart

The flowchart is a means of visually presenting the flow of data through an information processing
system, the operations performed within the system and the sequence in which they are performed.
In this lesson, we shall concern ourselves with the program flowchart, which describes what
operations (and in what sequence) are required to solve a given problem. The program flowchart
can be likened to the blueprint of a building. As we know a designer draws a blueprint before
starting construction on a building. Similarly, a programmer prefers to draw a flowchart prior to
writing a computer program. As in the case of the drawing of blueprint, the flowchart is drawn
according to defined rules and standard flowchart symbols prescribed by the American National
Standard Institute,Inc.
