Java, android - help me understand code please
<p>first, I spend all day finding the answers by myself, with no luck.</p>

<p>So, I am learning to develop for Android. I setup SDK, got everything running. I am also new to java and OOP itself. I have benn programming before, I know several Assemblers and C very well. </p>

<p>So, what I dont really understand is, in every game tutorial, game loop and SurfaceView is started like a new thread. But why? Why to start new thread for this, instead just let it flow from activity start method?</p>

<p>Thanks. </p>
