David's Top 10: Do That When Writing Swift

1) Purchase Dash (OS X and iOS) and get Swift from SwiftDoc.org (invaluable reference, I use it daily!)

2) Use Enums for UIView tags and SegmentedControl segments;

   enum MyViews: Int { case OKButton=1...} then switch MyViews(rawValue: view.tag)
   
 also for states (somewhat replaces C's X-Macros, helps during debugging)
