Question

I am creating a calculator for some cards game. In that game, I am creating a Singleton class to manager the game. It holds the scores, keeps track of where the game is etc…

Now after the app launches, I will ask the user to enter 4 players’ names. After that, 4 player objects are instantiated according to their names. I already have an object called “Player”, so 4 players will get instantiated with their name, and a score of 0 to start with.

Now I need to store those players in my singleton class. Therefore, I created 4 Player properties in the class. However my question is, under the init method in the Singleton class, in:

if ((self = [super init])) {
    // set properties here
}

Where // set properties here is, what do I write? Do I have to do anything with the Players properties over there?

Thank you,

No, you aren’t required to do anything with them, although I would probably set them to nil.
