Overview
Programming in Objective-C, Third Edition is a
concise, carefully written tutorial on the basics of Objective-C
and object-oriented programming for Apple's iOS and Mac
platforms.
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 C programming
language.
This unique approach to learning, combined with many small program
examples and exercises at the end of each chapter, makes
Programming in Objective-C ideally suited for either
classroom use or self-study. While the Objective-C language itself
has not gone through many changes since the introduction of
Objective-C 2.0, the Apple development tools that programmers use
for Objective-C development on the Mac and on iOS continue to
change significantly from year to year.
This new edition of Programming in Objective-C adds
information about programming for the iPad and iOS4 generally, and
updates all information for the latest revisions to the iPhone SDK
and Xcode.
