title: What is the path of the base folder for android projects?
body: <p>I have a project in Android Studio and I want to read data from a file, but I want to avoid using an absolute path. I want to write something similar to <code>File("FileName.extension");</code> without any <code>/../folder</code> stuff. </p>
  
  <p>So my question is where in the hierarchy is this folder?</p>
  
  <p>EDIT:
  I am trying to read the file outside an Activity. I have a subclass where I need the data so I am trying to read it there.</p>
