What is wrong with my code? (I've tried for days )

I can't figure out what is wrong with my code:

NSArray *thing = [[NSArray alloc] init];
for (id nil in thing) {
    NSLog("%@", nil);
}

Here's what the problem the preview shows:

expected statement

}

^ 6 errors generated.

When I deleted the curly braces and replaced it with a semi-colon on the second line of code I got this error:

expected ')'

note: to match this '('

for (id nil in thing);

  ^

5 errors generated.

Anyway, getting rid of the curly braces ruins the code.

P.S. I tried to make this post readable but it wasn't working.

Use three ` characters (same key as the tilde, above tab) instead of three ' characters (single quote) to block out your code. That will make it look good in the forum here.
