Objective c: Check if integer/int/number

Question

In objective c, how can i check if a string/NSNumber is an integer or int

Answer 1

if( [(NSString *)someString intValue] )
{ /* Contains an int fosho! */ }

if( [(NSNumber *)someNumber intValue] )
{ /* Contains an int wich is not 0.... :D */ }

You can ofcourse first determine whether its a NSString or NSNumber by using

[Object isKindOfClass:[NSString class]] etc...

– boolValue – charValue – decimalValue – doubleValue – floatValue – intValue – integerValue – longLongValue – longValue – shortValue – unsignedCharValue – unsignedIntegerValue – unsignedIntValue – unsignedLongLongValue – unsignedLongValue – unsignedShortValue

are all methods of NSNumber to get its values. NSString got a few similar ones.
