I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for, but Objective-C 2.0 has this: NSArray *a = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"Hello",@"Goodbye",nil];
for (NSString *s in a) { if ([s isEqualToString:@"Goodbye"]) { NSLog(@"it is equal"); } } And you can have an additional int (or NSInteger) counter to keep track of which object it is. Oh, you could also do [NSArray indexOfObject:]. if it returns NSNotFound, it's not in the array.
