How can I make a variable wait for the user to press 1 of 4 buttons?

Question

Well, I’ll try to be clearer.

I have a variable called int tentativa and I want it to receive a specific value depending on the button the user presses.

The buttons are btPedra[0], btPedra[1], btPedra[2], btPedra[3].

If the user presses btPedra[0], the variable receives 0.

If the user presses btPedra[1], the variable takes 1. And so on and so forth...

Note: The program must wait for the user to press one of the buttons to proceed.

My code is like this:

for (contador = 0; contador < jogada; ++contador){

    tentativa = 
    // AQUI A VARIAVEL tentativa DEVE RECEBER 0, 1, 2 OU 3 DEPENDENDO DO BOTÃO PRESSIONADO.

    if (tentativa[contador] == sequencia[contador]){
        acertos++;
    } else {
        gameOver();
    }
}

In addition to the button to make the variable receive a value, its color will be changed.

NOTE: I am programming in java for android!

                    for (contador = 0; contador < jogada; contador++) {
                        try {
                            Thread.sleep(250);

                        if (tentativa == sequencia[contador]){
                            acertos++;

                    }
                }
            }
        }).start();
    }

I believe you put the same onClick in everyone?

One output is you compare by id of the component that sends the "clicked", thus:

public void cliqueGenerico(View v) {
    int tentativa;
    switch (v.getId()) {
        case R.id.botaoUm:
            tentativa = 0;
            break;
        case R.id.botaoDois:
            tentativa = 1;
            break;
        case R.id.botaoTres:
            tentativa = 2;
            break;
        case R.id.botaoQuatro:
            tentativa = 3;
            break;
    }

    /* ... seu código restante */
}

Answer 2

Case I: just put the "try" variable to receive the keyboard value. The loop will wait for the assignment.

Ex por Linguagem:

Language C

scanf("%d", &trial);

Java language

Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in); try = scan.nextLine();

Thus the loop will execute while the value 4 is not assigned to the trial variable.

Case 2:

of {

}while(trial != 4);
