Based on Big Nerd Ranch’s popular iPhone Bootcamp class, iPhone Programming: The Big Nerd Ranch Guide leads you through the essential tools and techniques for developing applications for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch. In each chapter, you will learn programming concepts and apply them immediately as you build an application or enhance one from a previous chapter. These applications have been carefully designed and tested to teach the associated concepts and to provide practice working with the standard development tools Xcode, Interface Builder, and Instruments. The guide’s learn-while-doing approach delivers the practical knowledge and experience you need to design and build real-world applications. Here are some of the topics covered:
-
Dynamic interfaces with animation
-
Using the camera and photo library
-
User location and mapping services
-
Accessing accelerometer data
-
Handling multi-touch gestures
-
Navigation and tabbed applications
-
Tables and creating custom rows
-
Multiple ways of storing and loading data: archiving, Core Data, SQLite
-
Communicating with web services
-
ALocalization/Internationalization
"After many 'false starts' with other iPhone development books, these clear and concise tutorials made the concepts gel for me. This book is a definite must have for any budding iPhone developer." –Peter Watling, New Zealand, Developer of BubbleWrap |

 SELinux System Administration
NSA Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux) is a set of patches and added utilities to the Linux kernel to incorporate a strong, flexible, mandatory access control architecture into the major subsystems of the kernel. With its fine-grained yet flexible approach, it is no wonder Linux distributions are firing up SELinux as a default security... | | Cell Migration: Developmental Methods and Protocols (Methods in Molecular Biology)
A collection of classic, novel, and state-of-the-art methods for the study of cell migration in cultured cells, different model organisms, and specialized cells in normal development and disease. Highlights include basic assays that apply to all cell migration studies in vitro, assays in various model organisms, and assays for cancer cells,... | | Verification of Sequential and Concurrent Programs (Texts in Computer Science)
This widely anticipated third edition provides a systematic exploration of one of the most common approaches to program verification, known as the assertional approach. This approach is applied to deterministic and nondeterministic sequential programs of varying complexity, together with both parallel and distributed concurrent programs. The... |
Introduction to Embedded Systems: Interfacing to the Freescale 9S12
Embedded computer systems are electronic systems that include a microcomputer to perform
specific dedicated tasks. The computer is hidden inside these products. Embedded
systems are ubiquitous. Every week millions of tiny computer chips come pouring out
of factories like Freescale, Microchip, Philips, Texas Instruments, Silicon Labs,... | | Dating For Dummies (Lifestyles Paperback)If you’re looking for a fun Saturday night date or a happily-ever-after mate, this is the guide for you. Whether you’re young and haven’t dated much or older and have been out of circulation so long you’ve forgotten how to flirt, dating can be intimidating. Author Dr. Joy Browne, America’s favorite psychologist,... | | Contact Mechanics and Friction: Physical Principles and Applications
This application-oriented book introduces the associations between contact mechanics and friction and with it offers a deeper understanding of tribology. It deals with the associated phenomena of contact, adhesion, capillary forces, friction, lubrication, and wear from one consistent viewpoint. The author goes into (1) methods of rough... |
