Late, but catching up

Hi guys,

I just finished the Dictionary and NSURL part of Assignment 1. More to go hehe.

Just wanted to share some URL's I found of other bloggers working on the same course:

I'm hoping I can catch up with you guys -- trying to take advantage of my free evenings.

Btw, my solution used a bit less lines done he did (added the URLs and keys in one long list). 

His solution to the path were a bit more elegant than mine though :)

Great job! The first step is always the hardest. :)

You mentioned that you added all the URLS and keys in one long list,
so does this mean you used NSDictionary and initWithObjectsAndKeys
instead of creating an NSMutableDictionary and then setting the
objects one by one?

How did you implement the paths? I think I have a similar solution
with the blog you mentioned except I didn't call the description
method explicitly since logging an object using %@ notation already
does that for you.

Hope to see you in the upcoming Paparazzi meetups!

Cheers,
Paul

Thanks Paul.

Code excerpt:

NSMutableDictionary *dictionary = [NSMutableDictionary 

dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys: 

 [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.standford.edu"], @"Stanford University", 

 [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.apple.com"], @"Apple",

[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://cs193p.stanford.edu"], @"CS193P", 

[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://itunes.stanford.edu"], @"Stanford on iTunes U", 

[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://stanfordshop.com"], @"Stanford Mall",          nil];

NSString *key;

NSURL *url;

for (key in dictionary) {

url = [dictionary objectForKey:key];

if ([key hasPrefix:@"Stanford"]) { // Print only keys that start with Stanford

NSLog(@"Key: '%@' URL: '%@'", key, url);

}
