There's a way to improve Can's answer.

Connect your cells to code not as IBOutlet but as IBOutletCollection. If you name it as e.g. cells your code will look like this, which makes it slightly cleaner:

- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
    return self.cells.count;
}

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
    return self.cells[indexPath.row];
}

The order in which you connect cells to outlet collection will be the order you see when run the app.

I can think of supporting several sections by linking their cells to several outlet collections.
