Absolute Layout

An Absolute Layout lets you specify exact locations (x/y coordinates) of its children. Absolute layouts are less flexible and harder to maintain than other types of layouts without absolute positioning.

Note: Now this layout became deprecated because of different resolution of devices. If we design layout with Absolute layout x & y values are remains same if we open in any resolution so position is not in exact location.
