i realised after i'd sent this - object instance names are variables.
pointer variables.
different instances of the same object but using names that have been
derived on the fly, and on the fly requires variables.

is this what you are talking about?
for(int i = 0; i < 0; ++i) {
MyType myVariable + i = whatever;
}
and then use it as
myVariable0
myVariable1
...
because if that is what you want you can just create an array and
access
the elements as
myVariable[0]
myVariable[1]
...
Or am I way off the mark here?

thanks for the reply.
because an array will behave in a very different way to my object. i
want to initiate this object many times, so i guess the precise
question is: is it possible to initiate an object with a name that's a
variable? rather than what seems to be the norm - with a name that
you've typed in the code.

Subject: object instance names generated on the fly?
only just starting cocoa/obj-c so this might be very easy to do, or
impossible. i have no idea.
is it possible to get various object instances from one class with
names based/generated from a variable rather than names that have
been
typed into the code - so a series of object instances whos names have
been generated by using a for loop for instance?
thanks.
