This week I have mainly been thinking about writing an App for iPhone.
To help me along I have been reading a book "Advanced iOS 4 Programming" by Maher Ali.
The initial hurdles to overcome are:
1. A new language: Objective C. and
2. A new Api for interacting with the OS and the device.
My first shock was how low level everything seems: writing in C and having to do your own memory allocation and garbage collection seems painful after a few years of Python. My second shock was the syntax of method calls. Its a mixture of square brackets and dots .... oh well I suppose its just syntax.
Will let you know how I get on!
