How would I do this?

Thanks

ViewController.swift
class ViewController: UIViewController {

    @IBOutlet weak var timerButton: UIButton!
    var redColor: UIColor = UIColor.redColor()

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()

        @IBOutlet weak vat timerButton: UIButton!
        var setTitle: UIButton = UIButton.setTitle()
          func setTitle(_ title: "Start")
    }

}

Hi,

These are a little fiddly, I agree. Try something like:

timerButton.setTitle("Start", forState: .Normal)

The documentation isn't mega-clear at all, unfortunately.

Yes that worked, thank you.

Hi Matthew,

What are you trying to do here? Is this a code challenge or something you're working on yourself?

Either way, let us know what the intended end result is and we can help you fix it!

Steve.

These are the directions: Let’s assume we have an IBOutlet of type UIButton, named timerButton, as a property in the ViewController.swift file. In the viewDidLoad method, set the title of the button to “Start” for the state configuration Normal.

And I can't seem to figure out how to format this all correctly.
