I am writing my alarm clock. He put the controls on, but I don’t imagine how the main mechanism works - how to play a melody or cause a vibration when a certain time comes? What is the name of this event?

  • I think that if you were only enough to put control over it, then you shouldn’t go anywhere without a theory. Read some clever books, unfortunately there are no such books in Russian, but there is a resource called habrahabr. There are many useful things - LackOfKnowledge
  • Goloshchapov A. L. - Google Android Programming for Mobile Devices - 2011 - ReinRaus
  • In general, books on android in Russian are already more than enough! I personally have 4. Ozone will help. I advise the book Reto Meier Android 2. Application development and Android for 24 hours, although the latter is specific. - DroidAlex
