I learned the lattice method in the 5th grade in 1981 here in a US public school. I loved it and used it for years afterward. I didn't realize until I was in high school that it wasn't part of the curriculum but only something my teacher th

It's a good start, but it doesn't consider device diversity even within an identical version number of Android. Is may not be a factor for simple apps, but trust me, if you are doing things that interface with the underlying hardware it's a
