Get an Int out of an UILabel Swift

Question

I have the problem, to have a high amount of buttons which have a number as their label, so i thought i could take the label as an integer instead of creating an action for

Answer 1

connect all your buttons to 1 IBAction. then create the following variable and the set/get methods based on how you will use it.

note: "something" is a UILabel. The variable I wrote below should help you do conversions easily and with cleaner syntax. "newValue" comes with all setter methods. It basically takes into account any value that could possibly used to set "num" to a new value.

 var num : Int {
     get { 
         return Int(something!)!
     }
     set {
         something.text = Int(newValue)
     }

 }
