I have a little problem, and I need help.
I want to loop through a multidimensional array, and every time I find a value for a key ex."name" that is equal to ex. "Hello". I want to copy that array object into another array.
How do I do that?

I assume you have a 2-dimensional array and since I don't know how your objects within the array look like I take the id
type and the method valueForKey
:
NSMutableArray *tmp = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
for(NSArray *dim1Array in yourMultidimensionalArray)
{
for(id obj in dim1Array)
{
if([[obj valueForKey:@"name"] isEqualToString:@"Hello"])
{
[tmp addObject:dim1Array];
break; // I assume you only want to add it once
}
}
}
This is how you would do it:
NSArray* newArray = [NSArray arrayWithArray:oldArray]
