Part II. Speaking the Language of Objective-C

Speaking the Language of Objective-C

In this part...

Now that you have the tools downloaded, it's time to start programming. I help you do that in this part by first covering most of the Objective-C instruction set, which you'll need to get started. Think of the instruction set as the words that Objective-C understands, along with some rules about how you are allowed to combine them into sentences.

I also show you the language features that will enable you to create industrial-strength applications. This is what will make your application suitable for commercial distribution. I also get you up to speed using some prepackaged functionality (frameworks) that help make your programming tasks easier.

You get the rundown on the vocabulary of a new language, but as you will find out, it's a lot easier than learning to speak Sanskrit, for example.
