for each loop in Objective-C for accessing NSMutable dictionary

for (NSString* key in xyz) {
    id value = xyz[key];
    // do stuff
}

This works for every class that conforms to the NSFastEnumeration protocol (available on 10.5+ and iOS), though NSDictionary is one of the few collections which lets you enumerate keys instead of values. I suggest you read about fast enumeration in the Collections Programming Topic.

Oh, I should add however that you should NEVER modify a collection while enumerating through it.
