}

}

when I change required public init?(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) { fatalError("init(coder:) has not been implemented") } to

super.init(coder: aDecoder)

I get this error (Property 'self.courseID' not initialized at super.init call) anyone can help

Thanks

Answer 1

1. You are not calling the super class' init(coder:) method
2. Also, if its there, you need to remove the statement fatalError("init(coder:) has not been implemented"

So, replace your init function with following coder method:

required init?(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
   super.init(coder: aDecoder)
}
