So I decided to change that by taking Udacity's Intro to iOS App Development with Swift . Good decision, right? Right. For the first project, we develop a very basic application which records audio and plays it back. The first iteration requires playing a predefined audio file back at different speeds (or rates, according to AVAudioPlayer nomenclature). Below are the high level steps and code samples to play an audio file using Swift 2.0. First things first, you need an audio file, say a movie_quote.mp3 somewhere on your file system. Locate it!

Now the file will be made available to the application source code. Make sure you select t
