Technical QA 1405 concerns the creation of Objective-C methods that take variable number of arguments... so called variadic methods. Happily the mechanisms just use the standard C mechanisms (va_start and friends).

That being the case, why is it that methods like arrayWithObjects: require you to nil terminate the list of arguments? Is it simply tradition, or some kind of optimization?

I don't need to know... I'm just curious.
