Swift Developer Interview Question:

Do you know what is the reuseIdentifier used for?

Submitted by: Muhammad

The reuseIdentifier is used to indicate that a cell can be re-used in a UITableView. For example when the cell looks the same, but has different content. The UITableView will maintain an internal cache of UITableViewCell's with the reuseIdentifier and allow them to be re-used when dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier: is called. By re-using table cell's the scroll performance of the tableview is better because new views do not need to be created.
