How much technical programming knowledge do you need to develop for the iphone?

Hi there,

I have had some basic programming knowledge in languages like basic, html and some limited C. Is this enough to make basic apps for the iphone?

You need at least enough programming knowledge (and experience) to develop programs. Then you need enough knowledge of C to code the program you write. (Programming isn't knowledge of a language, it's knowledge of developing methods of doing something. You develop the program in English, then you code it in the appropriate programming language. Only very simple programs are successfully developed right in the language unless you have years of development experience.)
