Programming in Objective-C 2.0, Third Edition

A carefully written introduction to Objective-C and object oriented programming for developers new to Mac OS X or iPhone programming. Updated to include the latest information on the iPad and the newest iPhone SDK. Detailed examples and well-crafted exercises greatly expedite the learning process. Written by a bestselling author with a patented technique for teaching in a manner and at a pace that readers find accessible and easy to learn with. Programming in Objective-C is a concise, carefully written tutorial on the basics of Objective-C and object-oriented programming. The book makes no assumptions about prior experience with object-oriented programming languages or with the C language (which Objective-C is based upon). Because of this, both beginners and experienced programmers alike can use this book to quickly and effectively learn the fundamentals of Objective-C. Readers can also learn the concepts of object-oriented programming without having to first learn all of the intricacies of the underlying procedural language (C). This approach, combined with many small program examples and exercises at the end of each chapter, makes it ideally suited for either classroom use or selfstudy. While the Objective-C language itself hasnt changed over the last couple years, the Apple development tools that programmers use for Objective-C development certainly have changed significantly in a very short period of time. This edition adds information about programming for the iPad, and updates all information for the latest revision to the iPhone SDK. -
