How to add searching?

I want to add a search to this project. I have names of universities as a section names and specialities in each section. It is very important to me. I also have an info in each speciality, which is a string. I actually need convert info from textlabel into a NSNumber type and compare it with the search request. (maybe a separate viewcontroller with options for search). This is for filtering specialities with high lowest passing score. You'll help me very much with my course work!

I think you need to take a look at NSSortDescriptor, NSPredicate, and UISearchDisplayController !

a good start

ok, thanks https://github.com/MRxRadex/AbitHelper.git

It would be great to have filter in speciality, faculty, university, address. And also to make contest (in core data) NSNumber and compare it to users input and show specialities, number of contest of which is lower, than the user input.

Thanks!
