First, you need to connect the button from main.storyboard with it's respective swift file as an @IBAction.

Basically this code below we are using a UILabel and UIButton , the goal is that when the button is pressed we want to display hello into the UILabel 

          @IBOutlet weak var displaylabel :UILabel!

           @IBAction func  DoSomething(sender :UIButton) {
                  displaylabel.text =  " Hello "
                }
