How to hide a section in UITableView?

Question

There are some section in the table that does not contain any data and would like to hide that section.

How to do this?

Answer 1

You can't "hide" a section as such, but you can "delete" it from the table view using the deleteSections:withRowAnimation: method. This will remove it from the view, with an optional animation, without affecting your backing data. (You should, however, update the data anyway so that the section doesn't reappear.)
