Objective C terminology: outlets & delegates

Question

I\'m having issues understanding the concept of outlets how the iPhone deals with events. Help! Delegates confuse me too. Would someone care to explain, please?

Answer 1

A delegate is a object that another object can forward messages to. In other words, it's like when your mom told you to clean your room and you pawned it off on your little brother. Your little bro knows how to do the job (since you were too lazy to ever learn) and so he does it for you.
