private int getMatColor(String typeColor){ int returnColor = Color.BLACK; int arrayId = getResources().getIdentifier("mdcolor_" + typeColor, "array", getApplicationContext().getPackageName()); if (arrayId != 0) { TypedArray colors = getResources().obtainTypedArray(arrayId); int index = (int) (Math.random() * colors.length()); returnColor = colors.getColor(index, Color.BLACK); colors.recycle(); } return returnColor;}Usage
txt.setTextColor(getMatColor("500"));
If you want something working with older SDK you can try this way :
TypedArray colors = getResources().obtainTypedArray(R.array.loading_colors);int index = (int) (Math.random() * colors .length());int color = colors.getColor(index, Color.BLACK);textView.setTextColor(color);colors.recycle();You need to declare your colors in a arrays.xml :

Using reflection you can retrieve all java.awt.Color constants, some 148 colors with names
for (Field field : Color.class.getDeclaredFields()) { int modifiers = field.getModifiers(); if (Modifier.isPublic(modifiers) && Modifier.isStatic(modifiers) && Modifier.isFinal(modifiers) && field.getType() == Color.class) { String colorName = field.getName().toLowerCase(Locale.US); Color color = Color.valueOf(colorName); System.out.printf("- %s -> %s%n", colorName, color); }}This uses reflection, and assumes that the constant name is a human readable name.
[139] thistle -> 0xd8bfd8ff[140] tomato -> 0xff6347ff[141] turquoise -> 0x40e0d0ff[142] violet -> 0xee82eeff[143] wheat -> 0xf5deb3ff[144] white -> 0xffffffff[145] whitesmoke -> 0xf5f5f5ff[146] yellow -> 0xffff00ff[147] yellowgreen -> 0x9acd32ffSo add the colors in a list, and randomly pick one with random.nextInt(colors.size()).
