Remarks

• The dialog in the first example(Dialog) does not need to call show() when it is created as it is handled in the constructor
• Alert Dialogs must be constructed through a new instance of the AlertDialog.Builder() class. Following the Builder Pattern, all members of the AlertDialog.Builder can be method chained to ‘build up’ the dialog instance.
• The Alert Dialog builder can directly show() the dialog – you do not need to call create() then show() on the AlertDialog instance
