Unable to populate data into table view

This is Swift 4.
I was not able to populate the data (in the information array) into the table view.
I am expecting the strings "Name", "Date of Birth", "Gender", "Phone", "Email" to show up in the table view but nothing is showing up.

I have entered "ProfileInfo" as my tableViewCell identifier.

Thanks.

let information = ["Name", "Date of Birth", "Gender", "Phone", "Email"]

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int
return information.count


func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "ProfileInfo", for: indexPath) as! OTProfileTableViewCell
cell.label.text = information[indexPath.row]
return cell

There are some things the OP didn't include. I assume you are using a UIViewController subclass with a UITableView as a subview (since there is another view above the table and this is not as straightforward with a UITableViewController).

UIViewController

UITableView

UITableViewController

Please try the following if they are not already being done:

tableView.dataSource

viewDidLoad

Is tableView(_:cellForRowAt:) being called and is the cell you are grabbing the correct type? Use a breakpoint in this method to inspect. If the breakpoint isn't hit you are likely not setting the data source of the table properly.

tableView(_:cellForRowAt:)

Set a breakpoint in tableView(_:numberOfRowsInSection:) as well. This method should always be executed (as long as you have at least 1section).

tableView(_:numberOfRowsInSection:)
