  <p>I have go through android developer site where they give following difference :</p>
  
  <p>Note: Beginning with Android 2.2 (API level 8), "fill_parent" has been renamed "match_parent" to better reflect the behavior. The reason is that if you set a view to "fill_parent" it does not expand to fill the remaining space after sibling views are considered, but instead expands to match the size of the parent view no matter what—it will overlap any sibling views.</p>
  
  <p>But anyone explain with example.so that things may clear.</p>
