Swift iOS Version Checking

This article provides a technical guide for iOS developers using Swift to check the iOS version of a device. It explains how to use NSFoundationVersionNumber to determine if the device runs iOS 7 or iOS 8, enabling developers to implement fall-back plans for older versions while leveraging new iOS 8-only features. The tutorial includes code snippets for creating constants and conditional logic, emphasizing backward compatibility without relying on pre-processor directives or introspection. It is relevant for programmers working on iOS app development and version-specific feature support.
