I need a good analogy to make sense of Class methods vs. instance methods
Im getting fairly confused as the book im reading is delving into the NSNumber class and talks about all the different methods you can call on it. I have a couple questions: 1.) Do you not have to call a typical alloc or init on foundation classes? 2.)in what cases would you use, say, numberWithChar: as opposed to initWithChar (i think this is the part that is messing me up the most, not really sure im groking this concept on the level i need to be, if you folks could break it down for me I think it would really help me get over this humper-roo. Thanks, Nick Class/Instance Analogies Classes
