Patterns

Patterns play a large role in iOS programming. They are used extensively throughout iOS, and you will find them mentioned repeatedly. Even beginning iOS developers should know several key patterns, including the following:

         Model-View-Controller (MVC)

         Two-Stage Creation

         Delegation

• Cocoa Design Patterns, by Erik M. Buck and Donald A. Yacktman, Addison-Wesley Professional
• Chapter 1, “Model View Controller”
• Chapter 2, “MVC Analyzed and Applied”
• Chapter 3, “Two-Stage Creation”
• Chapter 15, “Delegates”

In addition to Apple’s use of patterns, you are encouraged to use them in your own work. Your use of patterns has been deferred until the Intermediate iOS Development: A Safari Tutorial.
