Answer 1

Swift 4

Timer.scheduledTimer(timeInterval: 1.0, target: self, selector: #selector(self.updateTime), userInfo: nil, repeats: true)

Update function

@objc func updateTime(){
    debugPrint("jalan")
}

Answer 2

import UIKit

class ViewController: UIViewController {

    let eggTimes = ["Soft": 300, "Medium": 420, "Hard": 720]
    
    var secondsRemaining = 60

    @IBAction func hardnessSelected(_ sender: UIButton) {
        let hardness = sender.currentTitle!

        secondsRemaining = eggTimes[hardness]!

        Timer.scheduledTimer(timeInterval: 1.0, target: self, selector:
            #selector(UIMenuController.update), userInfo: nil, repeats: true)
    }
    @objc func countDown() {
         if secondsRemaining > 0 {
             print("\(secondsRemaining) seconds.")
            secondsRemaining -= 1
        
         }
    }
}

Swift 3

private let NUMBER_COUNT_DOWN   = 3

var countDownLabel = UILabel()
var countDown = NUMBER_COUNT_DOWN
var timer:Timer?


private func countDown(time: Double)
{
    countDownLabel.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 300, height: 300)
    countDownLabel.font = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 300)
    countDownLabel.textColor = .black
    countDownLabel.center = CGPoint(x: self.view.frame.width / 2, y: self.view.frame.height / 2)

    countDownLabel.textAlignment = .center
    self.view.addSubview(countDownLabel)
    view.bringSubview(toFront: countDownLabel)

    timer = Timer.scheduledTimer(timeInterval: time, target: self, selector: #selector(updateCountDown), userInfo: nil, repeats: true)
}

func updateCountDown() {
    if(countDown > 0) {
        countDownLabel.text = String(countDown)
        countDown = countDown - 1
    } else {
        removeCountDownLable()
    }
}

private func removeCountDownLable() {
    countDown = NUMBER_COUNT_DOWN
    countDownLabel.text = ""
    countDownLabel.removeFromSuperview()

    timer?.invalidate()
    timer = nil
}
