I was reading the "Number and Value Programming Topics for Cocoa" section about decimal numbers and now I'm confused. If I want to use the C interface rather than the NSDecimalNumber class, how do I "instantiate" an NSDecimal struct? According to the "Foundation Data Types Reference", the fields of NSDecimal are private. I couldn't find any function that takes the necessary data and returns an NSDecimal, so how do I create an NSDecimal?

You can get an NSDecimal structure from any NSNumber or NSDecimalNumber object by sending it the -decimalValue message. As far as I know that's the only way to create one.
