As a stupid complete newbie not C-skilled, I asked for this very question a couple of weeks ago (it was about NSNumber).

I searched Doc. and Examples, but as you can figure out (and as many pointed out in the discussion), the point is to know what to search with what keywords.

But what is important, and you seem to not figure out this point, is that the responses I got from you and other explain me a LOT more than the Doc. did.

So, even if the question is simple, don't think the responses are.

Another many thanks to the list.
