Getting started with geographical coordinates

[Graham Samuel]

Wow, Devin, that is luck! I shall look at it instantly. I have got a little further on my own but am rather disturbed that there seem to be iOS functions with no Android equivalent, e.g. mergCLDistanceBetween - but I am still totally ignorant really.

Thanks 

Graham

A very rapid (obviously too rapid) search of the documentation finds commands like iphoneStartTrackingLocation, but no link to a description of how one reads the actual geographical coordinates or what form they take. There is a reference to CoreLocation, but that hasn’t got a dictionary entry.
