	I am new to android programming. I have created a ListView and its android:id="@+id/listView1" ListView list= (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listView1); ListView list= (ListView) findViewById(R.layout.listView1); Will it refer the same ListView? Are there any difference between these two snippets? asked 20 mins ago

No Both are different. R.id.listView1 :- Represents the id of View which is declared in layout (your XML file) as android:id="@+id/listView1" and R.layout.listView1 :- Represents the layout file (xml file) which into res -> layout dir You can do ListView list= (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listView1); because ListView is of View family. But you can't do ListView list= (ListView) findViewById(R.layout.listView1); answered 17 mins ago

	Both are representing different means. android:id="@+id/listView1" represent an widget inside an layout (XML file) that have Attribute as follows :- android:id="@+id/listView1" where as R.layout.listView1 shows you have a XML file in your layout folder named as listView1. so both are different. answered 11 mins ago

	android:id="@+id/listView1" this may be id of the listview created by you in the xml file. ListView list= (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listView1); and ou are representing the listview in your java file by calling the id. ListView list= (ListView) findViewById(R.layout.listView1); this is the way of representing a layout in your java file by calling the id of the layout answered 1 min ago
