I am very new to swift, extremely new, and I will probably feel like an idiot for asking this question. My very simple goal is that when my button is tapped the button's title will disappear, but unfortunately the app is crashing every time I run it and I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Thank you for the help.
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController {
@IBOutlet weak var background1: UIImageView!
@IBOutlet weak var screenButton: UIButton!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
self.screenButton.setTitle("Tap!", forState: UIControlState.Normal)
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
@IBAction func screenTapped(sender: AnyObject) {
self.screenButton.setTitle("", forState: UIControlState.Normal)
}
}

At some point, you accidentally set up an outlet called screenTapped. You need to find that outlet in Interface Builder in your storyboard and delete it.
What you want is an action from the button to screenTapped:. An action and an outlet are two very different things.
