iPhone SDK: Append NSString and Count Data

The web service that I am accessing returns this values:

A1;A2;A3;A4;A5;B2;B10;B11;B12;

I want to get the total count of all the data returned separated by ;. How can I do this? I'm thinking of doing a loop inside the string, get the value before ; but getting confused on how to properly run the loop.

There are many string functions and you can use one of them, that is componentsSeparatedByString.

Considering that above mentioned return value is a NSString.

NSString *strResponse = @"A1;A2;A3;A4;A5;B2;B10;B11;B12;";
NSArray *arCount = [strResponse componentsSeparatedByString:@";"];
NSLog(@"Total objects in response is: %d", [arCount count]);
