I guess for technical reasons behind the scenes in Android Studio because a String maximum length is huge. You can chain together multiple Log.d calls if you need to build up a longer message. Regarding the message not printing with an empty String, I think that the method checks for this and rejects the entire call when it occurs.

I Hope this helps a bit.

if I use a Log expression such as Log.d(“Some message”,”Some more message”); , the log message is visible in the Logcat. However, if I use a statement like
Log.d(“Some message”,””); It does not show up on Logcat at all. Notice that there is no character between the quotes in the second argument of the method log.d in the above statement. I wonder why? Any comments on this John?
Also there seems to be a limit on the number of characters that can be printed inside the Log message(I think its only 26 characters). Its weird to have such a constraint.

And the course/learning pathway will be published here in a few weeks.

But it seems to be there in the code in the tutorial so I don’t know how the copy & paste failed. The line should be protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {. Also, when I posted your code into Android Studio it didn’t like the quote marks ” but that could just be the formatting of the comments.
