Best explanation of FPS

Lately I am quite into Android gaming development and I did some reading on the topic and came across this best explanation of FPS in my opinion.

We measure the rendering in FPS which stands for frames per second. If we have 30FPS that means that we display 30 images every second. For a mobile device 30 FPS is great so we will aim for that.

Just imagine someone walking and close your eyes for exactly one second. After opening your eyes you will see the person in the position after one second. This is a 2FPS.

I never thought it could be explained this way! haha

Anyway, the posted link as above gives a good overall idea and implementation on how to develop a game (surface view is used, main game loop to update the UI running on another thread etc).
