“What is an object? An object is like a C struct ...”.
At this point, I realized I would indeed need to go back to my
beginner’s C
tome.
So here’s my point. C really isn’t used in Cocoa and you only need the
concepts, so you probably shouldn’t learn C. But if you don’t learn
C, you
can’t learn Cocoa, because it assumes a knowledge of C.
Hey Jonathan,
Try reading Stephen Kochan's Programming in Objective-C. It does not
assume any prior experience in any programming language whatsoever,
and covers the necessities such as "What are objects?" (and also
aspects of C which are useful and relevant to Objective-C). It will
get you familiar with the language itself, and then learning Cocoa
would be a great next step..
If you want to know more about C itself, the same author has also
written a great book on that as well.
It's available on O'Reilly's Safari for you :)
