[Bluej-discuss] Execute BlueJ

Frans --

It's for pedagogical (teaching) reasons.  It seems that many people have 
trouble learning Java (and other languages) by starting from a purely 
syntactic approach (that is, starting with the study of the main entry 
point).

Take a look at the book written by the folks who wrote BlueJ 
(http://www.bluej.org/objects-first/);  the title of the book pretty 
much explains it.  They are trying to teach the concepts of 
Object-Oriented languages by introducing classes and objects very early 
on -- in fact, from the very start.

For more details, I'll let the folks who implemented BlueJ and wrote the 
book speak for themselves. They've thought a great deal more about this 
than I have.

Regards

Bryan
