Good Day!
I want to search a specific string in the array of strings in objective c. Can somebody help me in this regard?
Thanks
A:
BOOL isTheObjectThere = [myArray containsObject: @"my string"];
or if you need to know where it is
NSUInteger indexOfTheObject = [myArray indexOfObject: @"my string"];
I strongly recommend you read the documentation on NSArray. In fact, you probably should have done that before posting your question :-)

You either loop through and test each value, or look into NSPredicate which provides pretty comprehensive searching for collection objects - almost as powerful as SQL where clauses.http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/cocoa/Conceptual/Predicates/predicates.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40001789
