iOS: Determine if device language is Right to Left (RTL)

Question

Is there a way to easily determine if the language the device is set to is right to left (RTL)?

Answer 1

Thanks to Kevin Ballard's answer I was able to create the following utility function to do this:

+ (BOOL)isDeviceLanguageRTL {
   return [NSLocale characterDirectionForLanguage:[[NSLocale currentLocale] objectForKey:NSLocaleLanguageCode]]==NSLocaleLanguageDirectionRightToLeft;
}
