Simple CSV Parsing using NSStrings and NSArrays

This is a tutorial for simple parsing of known layout CSV files. We are doing this project as later tutorials that involve the use of a UITableViewController will require data to display in the table - this CSV file contains that data. But before we get to the graphical portion, we need to be able to load the CSV and parse it into our data structure. This first part is about loading the CSV, next time we'll actually parse it into a custom class.

Hmm, I didn't remember that portion - I may have put that in thinking I wouldn't be able to complete it and forgot to remove it. I'll have to check it again. The only other thing I may have been thinking of adding more details into taking the parsed data and saving it into binary plist files and/or using an sqlite database.

Same as the other one you asked about part 2 on - this completes a full thought. I had planned on using the CSV in a larger project later on as a source for a UITableView which also would use one of the techniques from the data passing. Unless a video of mine states Part 1, there is no Part 2 or greater.

Hello Nethfel is there any videos that can demonstrate on adding the coreplot frame work into xcode project? Nice vid
