Answer 1

You should give a .tag to each button on creation

             UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeRoundedRect];
             button.tag = i;  // <-- here
             ...

With this, you could identify the button by .tag.

-(void)buttonEvent:(UIButton*)sender {
        NSLog(@"new button clicked!!!");
        if (sender.tag == 2) {
           NSLog(@"2nd button clicked.");
           ...
