*If you are a typical programmer, sure you will know what is Hello World. Hello World is the simplest program/ application that can be ran without error for testing purpose. For me, it is a program that shows the whole picture how an application works. To those who want to know more, this is a full description for it.

Todo List

1. Create Android Virtual Device(AVD) - one AVD can be used for all applications
   
2. Create New Project
3. Insert programming coding to shows Hello, World! using HelloWorld.java
   

1. Create Android Virtual Device(AVD)

• In Eclipse, choose Window > Android SDK and AVD Manager.
• Choose Virtual Device in the left panel and click the New button at the top right.
  A Create new Android Virtual Device (AVD) window will pop up.
  
  
  
• Type Name such as myavd, select target (i personally choose Android 2.1-update, this is the Android version you want to run in your emulator)
  All other boxes below can let it as default, then click Create AVD
  
  
  
• Click on the created AVD (myavd) and click Start... if you want to run the emulator. It took me more than two minutes to boot up the emulator using my fsl (f**king slow laptop)! Hopes that it is not happen to your pc, if not, just please be patient.
