To call a method in Objective-C, you can use the following syntax:

1
[object methodName];


For example, if you have an object called myObject and you want to call a method called doSomething, you can do so using the following code:

1
[myObject doSomething];


If the method takes arguments, you can include them in the method call like this:

1
[myObject doSomethingWithArgument:arg1 andAnotherArgument:arg2];


Here, arg1 and arg2 are the arguments being passed to the doSomethingWithArgument:andAnotherArgument: method.


It's also possible to call a method and assign the return value to a variable. For example:

1
int result = [myObject calculateSomething];


In this case, the calculateSomething method is being called and the return value is being assigned to the result variable.

To call a method in Objective-C, you first need to have an object that has the method you want to call. Then, you simply use the following syntax:


[object methodName];


For example, if you have an object called "myObject" that has a method called "doSomething", you would call it like this:


[myObject doSomething];


If the method requires arguments, you include them in the bracketed section:


[myObject doSomethingWithArgument:argumentValue];


In this example, "argumentValue" is the value you want to pass as the method's argument.
