title: Android: how to use dip (density independent pixel) in code?
body: <p>How do I specify that an <code>int</code> parameter is in dip? Specifically, how would write the equivalent of:</p>
  
  <pre><code>android:layout_width="50dip" 
  android:layout_height="50dip" 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Something like...:</p>
  
  <pre><code>LayoutParams params = new LayoutParams(50, 50)
  </code></pre>
