Why call updateTotalPriceLabel() inside reset method?

I'm wondering why you'd call the updateTotalPriceLabel method inside the reset function? When selecting a new item, total price will also update without it, so why bother?

func reset() {
    quantity = 1
    updateQuantityLabel()
    updateTotalPriceLabel() 
}

You are right, though updateTotalPriceLabel seems to belong in the reset() method, in case it is used elsewhere. Perhaps the best thing to do is remove the extra updateTotalPriceLabel() call in the collectionView.didSelectItemAtIndexPath method, since it is redundant if reset() is also called.
