Bold & Non-Bold Text In A Single UILabel?

Question

How would it be possible to include both bold and non-bold text in a uiLabel?

I\'d rather not use a UIWebView.. I\'ve also read this may be possible using NSAttribut

No need for NSRange with the following code I just implemented in my project (in Swift):

    //Code sets label (yourLabel)'s text to "Tap and hold(BOLD) button to start recording."
    let boldAttribute = [
        //You can add as many attributes as you want here.
        NSFontAttributeName: UIFont(name: "HelveticaNeue-Bold", size: 18.0)!]

    let regularAttribute = [
        NSFontAttributeName: UIFont(name: "HelveticaNeue-Light", size: 18.0)!]

    let beginningAttributedString = NSAttributedString(string: "Tap and ", attributes: regularAttribute )
    let boldAttributedString = NSAttributedString(string: "hold ", attributes: boldAttribute)
    let endAttributedString = NSAttributedString(string: "button to start recording.", attributes: regularAttribute )
    let fullString =  NSMutableAttributedString()

    fullString.appendAttributedString(beginningAttributedString)
    fullString.appendAttributedString(boldAttributedString)
    fullString.appendAttributedString(endAttributedString)

    yourLabel.attributedText = fullString
