Sample text

Each time you wanted to refer to the fraction, you’d have to refer to the corresponding numerator and denominator. And performing operations on these fractions would be just as awkward. It would be better if you could define a fraction as a single entity and collectively refer to its numerator and denominator with a single name, such as myFraction. You can do that in Objective-C, and it starts by defining a new class. 1 using a new class called Fraction. Here, then, is the program, followed by a detailed explanation of how it works.

If you’re used to using the UNIX shell and command-line tools, you might want to edit, compile, and run your programs using the Terminal application. Here, we examine how to go about doing that. Before attempting to compile you program from the command line, make sure that you have Xcode’s Command Line Tools installed on your system. Go to Xcode, Preferences, Downloads, Components from inside Xcode. 10. This figure indicates that the Command Line Tools have not been installed on this system. If they haven’t, an Install button will be shown, which you can click to install the tools.

All characters included between the opening /* and the closing */ are treated as part of the comment statement and are ignored by the Objective-C compiler. This form of comment is often used when comments span many lines of code, as in the following: /* This file implements a class called Fraction, which represents fractional numbers. Methods allow manipulation of fractions, such as addition, subtraction, etc. pdf */ Which style of comment you use is entirely up to you. Just note that you cannot nest the /* style comments.
