Large parts of Android are written in Java and its APIs are designed to be called primarily from Java. That said, it is possible to develop C and C++ apps using the Android Native Development Kit (NDK), however it isn't something that Google promotes. According to Google, the NDK will not benefit most apps.
What are the tools required for developing Android apps?
