902 PointsSeem to have multiple values in label
I seem to have multiple values in the label value when generating a fact. This doesn't happen every time.
Heres my code.
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController {
@IBOutlet weak var funFactLabel: UILabel!
let factProvider = FactProvider()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
funFactLabel.text = factProvider.randomFact()
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
@IBAction func showFact() {
funFactLabel.text = factProvider.randomFact()
}
}
import UIKit
struct FactProvider {
let facts = [
"Ants stretch when they wake up in the morning.",
"Ostriches can run faster than horses.",
"Olympic gold medals are actually made mostly of silver.",
"You are born with 300 bones; by the time you are an adult you will have 206.",
"It takes about 8 minutes for light from the Sun to reach Earth.",
"Some bamboo plants can grow almost a meter in just one day.",
"The state of Florida is bigger than England.",
"Some penguins can leap 2-3 meters out of the water.",
"On average, it takes 66 days to form a new habit.",
"Mammoths still walked the Earth when the Great Pyramid was being built."
]
func randomFact() -> String{
let randomNum:UInt32 = arc4random_uniform(9)
let randomInt:Int = Int(randomNum)
print(facts[randomInt])
return facts[randomInt]
}
}
