In particular, when you look at an Objective-C class description, in the column on the left there is often a document (or several) that describes the broader concepts, how this class relates to others, and provides snippets of code showing how to use the class. I often skim these first and then come back to the class description. Just make sure you are looking at the documentation for the right platform (iOS vs Mac).
