NSString Class Reference Overview

The NSSt ring class has two primitive methods— length (page 31) and characterAtIndex: (page 49)—that

provide the basis for all other methods in its interface. The length of Unicode characters in the string. cha racterAtIndex: (page 49)

(page 31) mEthOd

gives access to each character in the string

by index, with index values starting at 0.

The objects you create using NSSt ring and NSMutableSt ring are referred to as string objects (or,when no

confusion will result, merely as strings). The term C string refers to the standard cha r * type. Because of the natureofclassclusters,stringobjectsaren’tactualinstancesoftheNSStringorNSMutableStringclasses
