A lot of different text into an array!

[Error404]

Hi,

I have a couple of hundred short stories that will show up randomly on the screen when the user taps a button.

What would be the best way to make this happend in terms of just the data?

My first thought was to put all the information info an NSDictionary? Is that any good? How do you do that in code in that case?

Thanks in advance

i would personally just use a c string array and generate random numbers to choose what files to display to the user.

Thats me though.

If you are talking about data as in the text of the short stories, I'd put them in individual text files and add those as resources to your app. And then I'd probably also add a SQLite database with records that just point to the files.
