Step 2 − Add the following code to res/layout/activity_main.xml.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
   xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
   android:layout_width="match_parent"
   android:layout_height="match_parent"
   tools:context=".MainActivity">
   <TextView
      android:id="@+id/textView"
      android:textSize="16sp"
      android:textStyle="bold|italic"
      android:layout_width="wrap_content"

import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity{

         long difference = Math.abs(date1.getTime() - date2.getTime());
         long differenceDates = difference / (24 * 60 * 60 * 1000);
         String dayDifference = Long.toString(differenceDates);
         textView.setText("The difference between two dates is " + dayDifference + " days");
      } catch (Exception exception) {
