Video: Classes
Classes are general-purpose, flexible constructs that become the building blocks of your program’s code. You define properties and methods to add functionality to your classes by using exactly the same syntax as for constants, variables, and functions. Unlike other programming languages, Swift does not require you to create separate interface and implementation files for custom […]

Structures are general-purpose, flexible constructs that become the building blocks of your program’s code. You define properties and methods to add functionality to your structures by using exactly the same syntax as for constants, variables, and functions. Unlike other programming languages, Swift does not require you to create separate interface and implementation files for custom […]
Video: Functions
Functions are self-contained chunks of code that perform a specific task. You give a function a name that identifies what it does, and this name is used to “call” the function to perform its task when needed. Swift’s unified function syntax is flexible enough to express anything from a simple C-style function with no parameter […]
Video: Introduction
Swift is a new programming language for iOS and OS X apps that 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 […]
Say Hello to Swift
One of the biggest announcements coming out of WWDC this year is the creation of a completely new programming language called Swift – the newest programming language used to build apps. Today, most all Apple software is built with Objective-C. Originally designed in the 1980s and soon adopted by Next Computer–the Steve Jobs-led company whose […]
