because Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), cannot live without continuous change, during this evening the American company launched a new programming language for application developers for the iOS platform, Swift being its name. The new programming language would simplify the procedure of creating applications for iOS and OS X, while eliminating the restrictions that application developers faced using Xcode.
Swift is a new programming language for creating iOS and OS X apps. Swift builds on the best of C and Objective-C, without the constraints of C compatibility. Swift adopts safe programming patterns and adds modern features to make programming easier, more flexible, and more fun. Swift's clean slate, backed by the mature and much-loved Cocoa and Cocoa Touch frameworks, is an opportunity to reimagine how software development works.
This book provides:
- A tour of the language.
– A detailed guide delving into each language feature.
- A formal reference for the language.
Apple has already published in the iBookstore all the necessary documentation to quickly learn Swift and to learn how it should be used together with Xcode, so developers just have to get to work to create new and interesting applications.
