So here’s my point. C really isn’t used in Cocoa and you only need the

mmalc already pointed someone (you perhaps) to Programming in
Objective-C (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0672325861) which makes
no assumption that you know C. I've not read it, but the reviews are
excellent.
C is used in Cocoa. You don't need to be familiar with the C library
routines perhaps, but you do need to be aware of how loops,
variables, pointers, etc.. work.
Objective-C is just an extension to C.
But Cocoa isn't Objective-C (the language). Obj-C is what the
frameworks are written in. There are many C API (Spotlight, Core
Foundation, as well as others) that you may need to use as well. _______________________________________________
