Question

How can I make a countdown with an NSTimer using Swift?

Answer 1

For use in Playground for fellow newbies, in Swift 5, Xcode 11:

Import UIKit

var secondsRemaining = 10
    
Timer.scheduledTimer(withTimeInterval: 1.0, repeats: true) { (Timer) in
    if secondsRemaining > 0 {
        print ("\(secondsRemaining) seconds")
        secondsRemaining -= 1
    } else {
        Timer.invalidate()
    }
}
