Question 1 of 30
What are the earliest and latest versions of Android you have worked with?
How to Answer Answer ExampleLike any other operating system, Android has evolved through many different iterations. Each version is designated by a number that can contain up to three decimal places. Each version is also given a nickname such as Cupcake, Donut, Marshmallow, or Oreo. Interviewers will ask you about your experience working with the different versions of Android to understand how long you have been programming in this environment and how familiar you are with each version. Knowing about the pedigree and evolution of the operating system will also increase your programming skills and make you more valuable to the organization.
"I began working in the Android operating systems as early as 2008 with version 1.0, which didn't have a code name. I continued working on versions 2 through 11, which is the latest evolution of the Android operating system. Nicknames for Android such as Gingerbread, Honeycomb, and Jelly Bean were typical for the early versions. However, the nicknames were dropped effective with Android 10.0 released in 2019. Each subsequent version of the Android OS added additional features making the operating system more effective and easier to work with."
