Why does fast enumeration not skip the NSNumbers when I specify NSStrings?

Question

I thought that I knew how to use fast enumeration, but there is something I don\'t understand about it. If I create three NSString objects and three NSNum

I'm pretty sure that fast enumeration returns all objects in the array- all that you're doing in for (NSString *str in array) is typecasting str to an NSString. In the body of the loop you need to check the class of the returned object to make sure that it is an NSString.

for(NSString *str in array)
{
    if([str isKindOfClass:[NSString class]])
        NSLog(@"str : %@", str);
}
