Question

I have multiple strings combinations that I want my isEqualtoString to find automatically.
Right now, I have all combinations manually searched.

if([aString isEqualToString:@"xyz"] || [aString isEqualToString:@"zxy"] || [aString isEqualToString:@"yzx"] || [aString isEqualToString:@"xzy"] etc...){}

Answer 1

If you just want to know if any of them match, you can put all your candidates (xyz, zxy, …) in an NSArray and call containsObject:aString on the array. Use indexOfObject:aString if you need to know which string was matched.
