ListView with multiple choice

Hi Guys!!

Today i am sharing the code of the multiple choice option select in list view.

ListView is a view group that displays a list of scrollable items. The list items are automatically inserted to the list using an Adapter that pulls content from a source such as an array or database query and converts each item result into a view that's placed into the list. 

For more details about the List View visit the Android Developer site List View.

Lets Start the coding now.
