I really enjoy reading things like this, I tend to learn languages by building upon concepts I've learned elsewhere. As I'm familliar with Rails, I enjoy seeing how things are done in Cocoa. Due to it being a compiled and memory managed language, it will obviously require more lines of code.. however the verbosity of Cocoa tends to aid it's readability for me, and I have a pet peeve for strange abbreviations that other languages/frameworks tend to foster. Xcode's autocompletion makes it a non-issue. ^Previous poster.. don’t be so sarcastic… I really enjoy reading things like this, I tend to learn languages by building upon concepts I’ve learned elsewhere.

That was the most informative thing I've ever read! I hope you can do more comparing Perl, C, Haskell, ADA, LISP, FORTRAN, and COBOL, too! Thanks! Wow, that was really helpful.
