Answer 1

Remember that \n is a newline character. If you would like to extract separate lines based on \n you can try the following:

-(NSArray *)breakStringByNewlines:(NSString *)line {
    NSArray *myArray = [line componentsSeparatedByString:@"\n"];
    return myArray;
} // breakStringByNewlines

myArray will have elements that are the lines which were separated by \n

And to remove \t which is just whitespace, from a line, you could use this:

-(NSString *)removeWhiteSpaceFromLine:(NSString *)line {
    NSString *newline = [line stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:[NSCharacterSet whitespaceCharacterSet]];
    return newline;
} // removeWhiteSpaceFromLine

Hope that helps.

Try following code:

NSString *data= [str stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:[NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]];
