Thanks all for the replies. I clearly understand now that I should use
NSNumber instead of NSInteger. However, another question came up: when I use
the removeObjectForKey, how can I make a reference to a specific key? Let's
say I want to remove key that was initialized with [NSNumber
numberWithInt:1]. If I call removeObjectForKey:[NSNumber numberWithInt:1],
that method won't work because a new NSNumber pointer is being created,
correct?The only solution I could find is to use enumeration and go through
each key and gets its integer value.

Thank you
