Well, depends on what you mean by ordered. NSArray retains insertion order. NSSet does not. But NSSet may be sorting things on insertion (like you'd get with a binary tree structure), while NSArray cannot assume any particular order. So from the NSArray implementor's standpoint, the array is unordered.
