how can I Convert NSMUtableArray to NSString

Question

How can I convert NSMutableArray to NSString

bookArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
[bookArray addObject:@"Book A"];
[bookArray addObject:@"Book B"];

What do you want the result to look like? "Book ABook B"? "Book A, Book B"? "Book A and then Book B"? "(Book A, Book B)"? "[Book A, Book B]"? "'Book A', 'Book B'"? — Kurt Revis, Jan 26 '13 at 04:18

You could try [the documentation](https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/Foundation/Classes/NSArray_Class/NSArray.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/20000137-BABDECEE). — Caleb, Jan 26 '13 at 04:37

As per Hot Licks comment you can use below code.

bookArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
[bookArray addObject:@"Book A"];
[bookArray addObject:@"Book B"];

Then use Below code.

NSString *yourString=[bookArray description];

if you want to use NSMutableString and Some different separator then use Below Code.

NSMutableString* content = [NSMutableString string];

for (int aa=0; aa < [bookArray count]; aa++){
    [content appendString:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@<separator>",[bookArray objectAtIndex:aa]]];
}
