- Go through Chapters 2, 3 and 4 in the book "Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X (3rd Edition), do the excercises
- Watch Podcast lecture 2 on iPhone Application Development (CS193P) - Winter 2010
- Do assignment 1 of iPhone Application Development (CS193P)
Managed to finish chapters 2 and 3 before lunch. In chapter 2, we learnt to create an application where the system would generate a random number when the user clicks on a button. The random number would then be displayed in a label. We also learnt more about classes in this chapter. Got to familiarize how to create instance variables and how methods are being called. Managed to create instances of the classes as well as making connection.
Went for lunch with Kevin, Bernard, Calvin and Zac at Holland V. The food there's nice. Continued with chapter 4 of the book after lunch and watched the second lecture. As usual, Kevin went through what we've done and clarified our doubts. Got to know more about local and global variables. Local variables (int, double, float) are stored in the stack portion of the computer's memory. As for global variables (object references - pointers) are stored in the heap portion.
Moved on to work on assignment 1 after that. Looks like we've gotta work on more applications in order to familiarize ourselves with obj-c. Even Kevin is working on the assignment. We're to compare our work tomorrow before lunch. We're already halfway through, and should be able to get it done when we return to office tomorrow.
I'm really starting to like the Mac. Maybe getting one when my laptop gives up on me. Hehe. Looking forward to more learning tomorrow! :D
