In StoryActivity.java why we are using
Intent intent = getIntent();
and not
Intent intent = new Intent();
Intent intent = getIntent();

, we already instantiated an Intent
to send data to the StoryActivity
class. So when you create a new Intent
variable, and call getIntent()
, it would receive the data required. So there is no need to instantiate a new Intent
, as the work is already done.
