Q: 

Accessing data files in Objective-C or cocoa.

Hi Stackers!

I am fairly new to a objective-c or in whole mac/iphone development. My question is how can I acces a data files(text files or flat files) in objective-c? For example I have a sample.txt file, how can I open this files and access its data? Do I need to use a class? And I heard about dictionary, is this term related to my problems?

Please kindly redirect me to a good site.

Thanks alot.

hi sir, thanks for the quick answer. I have a question, what do you mean about the non-text data?

non-text data is binary data that is not (initially) meant to be printed to the screen in a human-readable way. E.g., an image file.
