Hi Basel,

If you haven't messed around with OOP (Object Oriented Programming) then Objective C will look like a confusing mess of code, at first it confused me to no end but after a while I got the hang of it by simply messing around with demos and examples.

If you need more in-depth explanations and/or tutorials there is plenty of resources to help you understand the syntax. https://www.google.com/search?sourceid=chrome-psyapi2&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8&q=learning%20objective%20c

Hi Chris,

Thanks for reply, the problem is i'm good in C#, C programming.

The problem here is the syntax is really complicated for me i dunno why.

Many Thanks,

Basel

I agree, I come from the C++ background and this syntax is really confusing. Especially when you have two parameters.
