I have the following output from my challenge solution - not entirely sure if this is what was requested, but is what I have produced.

Before the challenge it would be a simple for loop to read in the array of dictionaries, but how do you separate out the other items of the array?
Would it be simply to go through the array manually detecting the type of data held by each element in the array?
How would you detect what the object type is for each individual element in the array, for example…
Array item 1 is a NSString type, item 2 is a NSData type etc.?
