Programming in Objective-C 2.0 LiveLessonsis the world’s first complete video training course on the basics of Objective-C, the programming language at the heart of Mac OS X and iPhone and iPad application development.
Bestselling author and trainer Stephen G. Kochan provides the new programmer with a step-by-step, hands-on introduction to the Objective-C language and the fundamentals of object-oriented programming.
The course does not assume any previous programming experience and includes many detailed, practical examples of how to put Objective-C to use in everyday programming tasks for the Mac OS X or iPhone and iPad platforms.
Stephen G. Kochan is author of the bestselling book Programming in Objective-C 2.0and author or co-author of several bestselling books on the C language, including
Programming in C, Programming in ANSI C, and Topics in C Programming. He has been programming Macintosh computers since the introduction of the first Mac in 1984, and he wrote Programming C for the Mac.
