2,793 PointsA more efficient way to list out the artists
During the video you have us create a label for each artist in the array. I thought this was a little redundant so I looked for a more efficient way to display the artist list within the Detail View. I also noticed you only created 3 labels for the artists even though there were many more.
Since we assigned the text property of each label with the value of the array within playlist!.artists I figured we should be able to string along each value in the array. I found this little snippet:
var artistList = join("\n", playlist!.artists)
playlistArtist0.text = artistList
What this does is goes through the array and joins them all together with a line break in between each. Also, if you set the Lines property of a Label to "0" then it will auto size the number of lines so you don't need to set it unless you want to restrict the number of lines.
