Android App with basic Material Design force closes on start

I am pretty new to Android, am learning Android through some tutorials.

Recently, I came across a nice website which showed a perfect implementation of Tabs usage.

The link is : http://www.android4devs.com/2015/01/how-to-make-material-design-sliding-tabs.html

I copy pasted the exact same code in my Android Studio. The project ZIP is attached here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B7Q0z2lM1VTRR3JjSXFPQk1vNkE&authuser=0 ,as it would a tremendous amount of code.

This is a very simple app with no major implementation at all.

The problem is the App crashes on opening. I don't know why. There is no reason for it to crash because I have copy pasted the entire code through the tutorial.

Please help me.

Logs are:

You can solve this error by setting

<item name="windowActionBar">false</item>

to your styles.xml

Or you can use Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar instead of Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar in your styles.xml
