Answer 1

Swift 4

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) 
{
    let selectedCell = tableView.cellForRow(at: indexPath)! as! LeftMenuCell
    selectedCell.contentView.backgroundColor = UIColor.blue
}

If you want to unselect the previous cell, also you can use the different logic for this

var tempcheck = 9999
var lastrow = IndexPath()
var lastcolor = UIColor()
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath)
{
    if tempcheck == 9999
    {
        tempcheck = 0
        let selectedCell = tableView.cellForRow(at: indexPath)! as! HealthTipsCell
        lastcolor = selectedCell.contentView.backgroundColor!
        selectedCell.contentView.backgroundColor = UIColor.blue
        lastrow = indexPath
    }
    else
    {
        let selectedCelllasttime = tableView.cellForRow(at: lastrow)! as! HealthTipsCell
        selectedCelllasttime.contentView.backgroundColor = lastcolor
        let selectedCell = tableView.cellForRow(at: indexPath)! as! HealthTipsCell
        lastcolor = selectedCell.contentView.backgroundColor!
        selectedCell.contentView.backgroundColor = UIColor.blue
        lastrow = indexPath
    }
}
