If you haven't ever programmed in Actionscript, thats okay, you'll learn a little of that too when our Jeremy Hicks, switches back and forth between Flash and Xcode to show how to code the basics in both programs. In this first hour, you'll learn variables, functions, if statements, importing frameworks (other classes), connecting objects in Interface Builder to Xcode, and tons of other essential beginner tips to understand the foundation of iPhone and iPad App Development.

Part 2: Programming a Clock Application

Your finished project will be a clock. Who needs another clock program, right? Nobody. So don't plan on selling this in the App Store and becoming a millionaire, but learning to program this application will give you an excellent start on creating more exciting apps. Key topics in this part include: starting your app with a tab bar setup, importing images, controlling views, using text fields, writing code for displaying the time and date, creating a loop to repeatedly run code, animating objects, debugging, and of course writing tons of functions, variables, arrays, if statements, and everything else involved with a common app.

As always the tutorial movie is in high definition, and the XCode source files are included.
