title: How do you store a collection of Strings in SQLite on Android?
body: <p>I'm quite inexperienced with using databases in applications, so I need a bit of guidance.</p>
  
  <p>I have a Java object with several primitive fields, and several references to Strings and ArrayList objects. The primitives and Strings map nicely to available SQLite fields, but I'm not sure how I can persist the ArrayLists. </p>
  
  <p>I was entertaining two ideas, one of which is to serialise the ArrayLists and store them in a Text field, the other is to have a column which points to a table with arity 1, in which I can store the individual strings, but I'm unsure of how to implement this in android. I'm open to different approaches, but I wouldn't know how to implement the latter in java using SQLite, so a solution would be lovely. Thanks.</p>
