I'm new to programming and after doing some tutorials online I decided to make my own app with Xcode 7 to be able to run my app on my iPhone. But when I try to get input data from a text field and put it into a var it gives me an error. I have tried to use the following:
var initialChips = 0
var initialBlind = 0
@IBOutlet weak var txtBlind: UITextField!
@IBOutlet weak var txtChips: UITextField!
@IBOutlet weak var doneBtn: UIBarButtonItem!
@IBAction func doneBtn(sender: AnyObject) {
let initialChips:Int? = Int(txtChips.text)
let initialBlind:Int? = Int(txtBlind.text)
}
Xcode will ask to put a "!" after ".text" but after doing that it gives me a warning: "Initialization of immutable value 'initialChips' (or 'initialBlind' was never used: consider replacing with assignment to '_'or removing it".
What can I do to set a value to my var?
