You have to set an @IBOutlet to the tableView in you ViewController and set as it's delegate and dataSource to you can see the data an respond to changes in the tableView.

Something like this :

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()

    self.tableView.delegate = self
    self.tableView.dataSource = self
}

And implements the UITableViewDataSource protocol too.

Or you can too in the Interface Builder set the ViewController as it's delegate and dataSource (more easy to do I think) and avoid to set manually in code like above. Is up to you.

I hope this help you.
