How do I move activity to another activity?

Question

So it has been a while since I done Java and I wanted to see how this code would go with android studio? I'm trying to figure out how to send activity from the first to the 2nd activity where the price of the pizza would be displayed in the receipt area. While also calculating the price of everything and saving the activity state as the user rotates to landscape mode. Apparently I can do that with separate classes? First Activity xml:

There are multiple ways that can share data between views(activities ,Fragment etc..)

You can pass data using Intentwhen you start the new activity .

intent.putExtra("KEY",value) ;

and from the next activity you can access that data like below.

getIntent().getStringExtra("KEY");

Alternatively you can use Navigation Component for Navigation between your views in the application. You can use safeargs to pass data between activities when you are using navigation component.

For your second question try to implement a viewmodel for your activity so that you can get the data easily back when orientation change happened.

Use getIntent in OnCreate method of your Activity2.Java Intent intent = getIntent();
