Displaying random questions in an application

Question

I am developing an application which involves a quiz in it. I have used a viewflipper for displaying question, as i press the next button it flips to next question. However, I wish to display these questions randomly. I have parsed an xml and displayed the questions n its options !

and do you have a more detailed question as well as code for us? — nano_nano, Feb 14 '13 at 09:26

Assuming that all your questions stored in array or some data structure e.g. ArrayList

You need to define a single random object only once in your activity

e.g.

Random random = new Random();

Get the next question index:

int nextQuestionIndex = random.nextInt(n); // where n is the total number of questions
