Hi, I'm new to software development so I was wondering, which programming language would be the best for Mac development, C++ or Objective-C. I will be programming in xCode, so whi…
Where should I go to learn (for the complete noob) about either one? After reading a few web pages, I kinda leaning towards Objective-C, but I can't find any that don't already req…
In either case you should really learn plain C first. But for Mac-specific programing, Objective-C is the language of choice. It has the best integration with the Mac APIs (eg, C…

Xcode can compile C++, Objective-C and plain old C. So you've got a compiler no matter which you go with. And yeah, a search would probably turn up better recommendations than you'…
Good luck making your decision. Like everyone, I agree that you should try and learn C first (or use the Cocoa bindings from a language like Python if learning C isn't your desire…

Objective-C has more than one syntactic extension to C. It adds keywords such as @implementation…@end and @try, and the <ProtocolName> syntax for indicating conformance to a …

Carbon and Cocoa are very different. It's not that one is necessarily less capable than the other, they're just different. To generalize a lot, I would say Cocoa is "easier." Carbo…
