Chapter 7
"Loading a Nib View Manually"

The book is so good and I find the step-by-step tutorials very clarifying.

In this first manual nib-loading exercise, the code is there but we are not told where to put it. (I looked at the sample code download and of course it makes sense that this is happening in viewDidLoad.)

I think that should be mentioned in the instructions.

Only trying to help. Great book!

Canvas heading

"choose Editor → Canvas → Minimap" should be

"choose Editor → Minimap"

(based on the menu arrangement in Xcode 12.1)

Thanks for a great book!

do {
// throw can happen here
} catch MyFirstError.firstMinorMistake {
// no error object
// but we know it's either MyFirstError.firstMinorMistake
// or MyFirstError.firstMajorMistake

should read:

do {
// throw can happen here
} catch MyFirstError.firstMinorMistake, MyFirstError.firstMajorMistake {
// no error object
// but we know it's either MyFirstError.firstMinorMistake
// or MyFirstError.firstMajorMistake
