Well, I would say it's because C data types are lighter objects, and there is no reason to use NSNumber in most cases. On the other hand, when you want to store a number in an NSDictionary, or an NSArray, then you need an NSNumber, because you can only store objects in container classes.

I realize this is a newbie question but I cant seem to find an answer.
most code that I have looked at use C data types (for numbers) instead of NSNumber is there a reason why?
thanks for the info!
