# Android Mid Term
- For this project you will need to display the random number gotten from your websites
- One method for this is to use Volley to make GET requests.
- You can find out how to use it here https://developer.android.com/training/volley/request
- This repository also has example code using Volley to connect to the OU calendar
- In order to make GET request to your website you will need to make endpoints
- You can find out how to make endpoints for an app engine here: https://cloud.google.com/endpoints/docs/openapi/get-started-app-engine-standard
- You can find out how to make endpoints for a compute engine here: https://cloud.google.com/endpoints/docs/openapi/get-started-compute-engine-docker
