So I'm working on a simple iPhone game and am trying to make a local high score table. I want to make an array and push the highest scores into it. Below is the code I have so far:
CGFloat score;
score=delegate.score;
NSInteger currentindex=0;
for (CGFloat *oldscore in highscores)
{
if (score>oldscore)
{
[highscores insertObject:score atIndex:currentindex]
if ([highscores count]>10)
{
[highscores removeLastObject];
}
}
currentindex+=1;
}
The problem is that highscores is an NSMutableArray, which can only store objects. So here's my question, what is the best way to store CGFloats in an array? Is their a different type of array that supports CGFloats? Is their a simple way to turn a CGFloat into an object?
And please don't comment on the fact that I'm storing scores in the app delegate, I know it's a bad idea, but I'm not in the mood to have to make a singleton now that the apps almost done.
You can only add objects to an NSArray
, so if you want you add CGFloat
s to an array, you can use NSNumber
.
Eg:
NSNumber * aNumber = [NSNumber numberWithFloat:aFloat];
Then to get it back:
CGFloat aFloat = [aNumber floatValue];
