title: Android - Copy files from assets to /data/data folder
body: <p>I need to use some files in my app. They are kept in asset folder. I saw discussions on SO, where the files are being copied from asset folder, to /data/data/&lt;package_name&gt; on the internal storage, and then being used.
  I get the code, but what I do not get is, what is the need to copy the assets to internal storage?</p>
