Android Question Split list into chunks

[apty]

I have a list with 50 items. How can i split the list into 10 items each and load the first 10 in panel 1, the next 10 in panel 2 etc upto 5 panels?. The panels are from sliding panels tutorial.

I want each panel to hold 10 items (10 buttons to be specific).

Have you seen this, maybe you can adapt it somehow...

Where is the problem? Iterate through the list and create a new panel on ever 10th item....
What have you tried so far? <- Do not expect us to write the code for you!

I tried the below code but it loads everything in first panel

Dim panels(4) As Panel
    Dim lt As Int=0
    Dim tp As Int=0
    For i = 0 To panels.Length - 1
        panels(i).Initialize("panels")
        panels(i).Color = Colors.RGB(Rnd(0, 255), Rnd(0, 255), Rnd(0, 255))
        For j=0 To 50
            Dim btn As Button
            btn.Initialize("")
            btn.Text="Hi"
            panels(i).AddView(btn,Activity.Width/5*lt,Activity.Width/5*tp,100dip,100dip)
            lt=lt+1
            If lt=5 Then
                tp=tp+1
                lt=0
            End If
            If j=10 Then
               
                Activity.AddView(panels(i), 100%x, 0, 100%x, 100%y - 80dip)
                Activity.AddMenuItem("Panel #" & i, "Menu")
            End If
        Next
        
        

        
    Next

If j=10 Then

Activity.AddView(panels(i), 100%x, 0, 100%x, 100%y - 80dip)
Activity.AddMenuItem("Panel #" & i, "Menu")
End If

you are only adding the panel at index 10. Other panels are not added. Why?

The panels are added but all 50 buttons are on first panel. The rest 4 panels are empty with no buttons

the problem is in your code. You are adding all to the first panel

I have a list with 50 items

Iterating from 0 to 50 gives you 51 items..
And

Dim panels(4)

gives you 4 panels (0 to three)..

j div 10 will give you 0 for first block (0..9), 1 for second block (10..19) and so on. So the integer part of the divison is what you need to identify the right panel.
j mod 10 will give you the "order position" of an item on its panel (returns 0..9)

Thanks.Where do i place the j div 10 or j mod 10 in the code?
