Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X

I would recommend that you take a look at the Apple documentation. I don't understand why people spend money on books when you can download (in my opinion) excellent books from Apple. I would recommend these books to start with:

Object-Oriented Programming with Objective-C
The Objective-C 2.0 Programming Language
Cocoa Fundamentals Guide
Memory Management Programming Guide for Cocoa

They can all be downloaded from Apple.

 

it's one of the best development books i've read. anxiously awaiting the sequel to be delivered from amazon any day now.

your own physical developer library can be a valuable resource and allow you to get away from the computer screen. in my opinion, physical books are far better learning tools than .PDFs.

here's some of my "light summer reading" from the past couple of years.

 

Where do you find those pdf's on Apple's website?

 

I googled them and it linked me to this

Thanks to everyone in the thread I have been wondering where to start on programming its been 25years at least since I have done it, On the old school(quite literally )macs the keyboard computers hooked up to the dial tvs lol.

I am working on a relatively simple app, but Just didn't know where to begin on catching up with the times.
