[Bluej-discuss] general question

[Todd O'Bryan]

The book is often used in classes and having answers available would  
encourage unscrupulous students to skip the thinking and go right to  
the answer. Often, checking the result of your changes lets you know  
if you did what you were supposed to. In cases where you're really  
not sure, you can ask the list if you're on the right track.
