I recently purchased my first Mac and I am going to develop programs using Objective-C/Cocoa. There is a "tutorial" at http://www.macdevcenter.com/pub/a/mac/2003/07/22/cocoa_series.html with the author's purpose to teach just enough C to get us good enough to start doing "day-to-day" programming in Objective-C. If I need to know C to program in Objective-C what is the difference between the two and do they use the same compiler? How do I find out what compiler and version is installed on my computer so I can look for books to help me learn the correct syntax?


Objective-C is an extension of C. So you need to know C to add the Objective-C skills to that.

Yes, they use the same compiler. The compiler comes with OS X, and is GCC 3

Apple's docs on Objective-C are good (bias alert), and the new Programming with Objective-C book is also supposed to be quite good.
