Null Pointer Exception when calling getResources()

Question

I\'m making a quiz program for android, and to keep things compatible for different languages, I\'ve put all my quiz questions and labels in my strings.xml file. Basically

Answer 1

For those that are interested, I got my code up and running with the following.

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    String[] questionHeaders, answerKey, questions;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        Resources res = getResources();
        questionHeaders = res.getStringArray(R.array.question_header_array);
        answerKey = res.getStringArray(R.array.answer_key_array);
        questions = res.getStringArray(R.array.questions_array);
    }

    int correctAnswers = 0;
    int questionCounter = 0;

1. Declared the three String[] arrays in the main activity before onCreate().
2. Initialize a 'Resources' object named res inside onCreate().
3. Call getStringArray on res to load each String[] array
