Learning a new computer language can be daunting. With Swift, Apple has lowered the barrier to entry to writing iOS and OS X apps by giving developers an innovative new programming language for creating software. If you are new to Swift, this book is for you. If you have never used C, C++, or Objective-C, this book is also for you. With this book, you’ll be writing simple Swift apps before you know it.
