Make sequence array for edittext value

Question

I have 270 EditTexts. Now I want to get the value from each EditText and put it into a String[] concurrently and compare it for results. Unfortunately I can't do it. How can I achieve it?

One more thing I want to check if correct or not. If not correct I just get this correct answer in EditText which is wrong.

if edit text box in one layout then get all child for (int i = 0; i < ll_projList_projectType.getChildCount(); i++) { if(ll_projList_projectType.getChildAt(i) instanceof EditText) { EditText edt = (EditText)ll_projList_projectType.getChildAt(i); str[i] = edt.getText().toString() } } — Patel Hiren

The idea is that you have to iterate over all your EditText boxes and save its result in the string[]. To do this I recommend you to have this 270 EditText boxes inside a ViewGroup and then iterate over the childs of the ViewGroup. You can do something like this:

LinearLayout layout = (LinearLayout)findViewById(R.id.layout); // The ViewGroup mentioned which should have the 270 EditText boxes inside
String[] myStringArray = iterateOverViews(layout);

Where iterateOverViews(layout) calls to this function:

public String[] iterateOverLayout(LinearLayout layout) {
    String[] ret = new String[270];
    for (int i = 0; i < 270; i++) {
        EditText box = layout.getChildAt(i);
        ret[i] = box.getText();
    }
    return ret;
}
