Getting the coordinates from the location I touch the touchscreen

Question

I try to get the coordinates from the location where I hit the touchscreen to do put a specific UIImage at this point.

How can I do this?

Answer 1

Taking this forward for Swift 3 - I'm using:

override func touchesBegan(_ touches: Set, with event: UIEvent?) {
    if let touch = touches.first {
        let position = touch.location(in: self)
        print(position.x)
        print(position.y)
    }
}

Happy to hear any clearer or more elegant ways to produce the same result
