Ios I am confused about the results I am getting when passing data from a selected tableview row to a viewcontroller?

ViewDidLoad gets called as a result of loading the view controller (i.e. InstantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:). So by the time you set your labels, viewDidLoad has already been run and has returned.

Try putting your logging statements in viewDidAppear instead.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
