Objective-C for Absolute Beginners

This book assumes you may have never programmed before. The book is also written for someone who may have never programmed before using object-oriented programming (OOP) languages. There are many Objective-C books out there, but all of these books assume you have programmed before and know OOP and computer logic. We wanted to write a book that takes readers from knowing little or nothing about …

Objective-C Phrasebook

Objective-C has a Smalltalk-like object model. If you come from Java, you will find this very easy to understand. If you come from a Simula-family language, such as C++, you may find it a bit more difficult. Alan Kay described the idea of objects as a simple exercise in reduction. When solving a problem, you want to decompose it into simple parts. The simplest thing that can run a part of a p…
