- When I was learning IB that was the same question I had. I did not answer
- it until I learned Objective-C and reading an article in "The Journal of
- OOP" magazine and the article is "Why I need Objective-C?". That's
- probably going to answer all your whys. I understand you perfectly since
- I asked myself the same question, but take the time to learn Objective-C
- you'll love it.
-
- I love Objective-C, it's easy, simple, powerful and what's most important:
- "Thanks to Objective-C we have IB and Distributed Objects so nicely
- integrated into Objective-C. Not possible with C++.
