That's fair, but if you're just exploring how the syntax works, that's
orthogonal to program design issues. When learning Java, I had to
write tiny, uncommented, unreadable programs to test my understanding
of how certain language features worked. I didn't worry about readability
since I knew I was going to throw the thing away right after it started
working. That doesn't mean I didn't also look at how Java classes,
interfaces, etc. can be used to address program design issues.
