Quick & Easy iPhone Programming

DESCRIPTION Quick & Easy iPhone Programming is a no-nonsense book for beginners who want to get started with iPhone programming without getting lost in the inner workings of the iPhone SDK or the Objective- C language. Readers will rapidly move from their first "Hello World" app to programs that include the fun and friendly features that iPhone users love. Since iPhone SDK programming uses Objective-C, the book starts with a quick overview of the language in the first chapter. Instead of doing everything by code, though, the book takes full advantage of the GUI Interface Builder for making applications quickly with a minimum of coding. Fully up-to-date for iPhone SDK 4.2, the book explains each user interface component step-by-step, and shows how each one works in a running app. KEY POINTS * Step-by-step guide for beginners * Numerous examples wth easy, hands-on instructions * Covers iPhone SDK 4.2 AUDIENCE This book is for beginner iPhone developers. To get the most out of it, readers should have used another programming language, but no experience with the iPhone SDK or Objective-C is required. ABOUT THE TECHNOLOGY Tens of millions of iPhone users have made over 1.5 billion downloads from Apple's App Store in a little over a year.
