Question

Here is my current code:

int i = 1;


NSString * StockOneYahooFinance = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"http://finance.yahoo.com/q/hp?s=S+Historical+Prices"];
NSString * PulledStockOne = [NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:StockOneYahooFinance] encoding:1 error:nil];

for (i=1;i=30;i++){

NSString *StartPulling = [[PulledStockOne componentsSeparatedByString:@"nowrap align="] objectAtIndex:i];

NSString *StartOpen = [[StartPulling componentsSeparatedByString:@">"] objectAtIndex:3];
NSString *Open = [[StartOpen componentsSeparatedByString:@"<"] objectAtIndex:0];

NSString *StartClose = [[StartPulling componentsSeparatedByString:@">"] objectAtIndex:9];
NSString *Close = [[StartClose componentsSeparatedByString:@"<"] objectAtIndex:0];

    year.text = Close;

i++;
}

But to the point I click the only button on the screen and it does exactly what I want it pulls the stocks open and close price for the day. But my current issue is I want it to pull all of these as an array so how can I do this?

First thing:

for (i=1;i=30;i++){

it should be:

for (i=1;i<=30;i++){

Second one, do not increment ‘int i’ value on the end of loop because ‘for’ loop already do this. For quick’n dirty way of debugging add:

NSLog(@"Current iteration: %i", i);

as the first function in ‘for’ loop to see what’s happening there.
