Programming in Objective-C

Objective-C has been Apple's language of choice for iOS App development since the iPhone first arrived on the scene in 2007. And with well over a million Apps in the App Store having been written in Objective-C, its importance and relevance remain crucial for any development team. This 3-day course will provide a thorough exploration of Object Oriented Programming with Objective-C through a myriad of hands-on labs and exercises that will cover both the theoretical and practical aspects of the language. Topics covered will include Objective-C Data Types, working with Collection Objects, Control-Flow, Creating Custom Classes, Inheritance, Polymorphism, Dynamic Binding and Dynamic Typing, the Foundation Framework, working with the iOS File System and much more.An in-depth exploration of Xcode - Apple's IDE for developing iOS Apps - will also be an integral part of this class as students will use it to write a myriad of programs that demonstrate the concepts being taught.Students will have gained a solid foundation and understanding of how Objective-C works, a strong familiarity with the Xcode IDE and thus be ideally prepared to move on to learning iOS App Development.
