Objective-C has become the standard programming language for application development on the iOS and Mac OS X platforms. A powerful yet simple object-oriented programming language that's based on C, Objective-C is widely available not only on Apple platforms but across many operating systems that support the gcc compiler, including Linux, Unix, and Windows.

Programming in Objective-C provides the new programmer a complete, step-by-step introduction to the Objective-C language. The book does not assume previous experience with either C or object-oriented programming languages, and it includes many detailed, practical examples of how to put Objective-C to use in your everyday programming needs.

The third edition of this book has been updated and expanded to cover the latest developments in Objective-C as well as new tools such as Xcode 4. It shows how to take advantage of the Foundation framework's rich built-in library of classes as well as how to use the latest iOS SDK to develop programs designed specifically for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch.
