Assignment 2

Problem:The app allows the user to select a topic (e.g., History, Science, or
Technology) from a Spinner. Based on the selected topic, a Fragment is dynamically
loaded to show a brief description. A "More Info" button in the fragment launches a
new Activity (DetailedActivity) to provide detailed information about the selected topic
