   implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:20.5.0'

3. Initialize the AdMob SDK in your app's main activity by adding the following code:

   
   import com.google.android.gms.ads.AdRequest;
   import com.google.android.gms.ads.AdView;
   import com.google.android.gms.ads.InterstitialAd;
   import com.google.android.gms.ads.MobileAds;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity { private AdView adView; private InterstitialAd interstitialAd;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

    // Initialize AdMob
    MobileAds.initialize(this);
    adView = findViewById(R.id.adView);
    interstitialAd = new InterstitialAd(this);
    interstitialAd.setAdUnitId("YOUR_AD_UNIT_ID");
}

}

4. Replace "YOUR_AD_UNIT_ID" with the actual ad unit ID you created earlier.

<!-- AdView -->
<com.google.android.gms.ads.AdView
    android:id="@+id/adView"

    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_marginTop="16dp"
