Question

How do I declare a two dimensional array of string type in Objective-C?

Answer 1

If you want to declare and initialize a two-dimensional array of strings, you can do this:

NSArray *myArray = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:
                       [NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"item 1-1", @"item 1-2", nil],
                       [NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"item 2-1", @"item 2-2", nil],
                       [NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"item 3-1", @"item 3-2", nil],
                       [NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"item 4-1", @"item 4-2", nil],
                       nil];

This has the benefit of giving you an immutable array.
