Synopsis

Learn Objective-C Programming

Objective-C is a powerful programming language that provides Object-Oriented capabilities and a rich set of features. It was developed in the early 1980s by Brad Cox and Tom Love. Objective-C was originally designed as a small extension to the C programming language. It has since been extended and has become a full-fledged Object-Oriented language.
