How can I populate a table view, not a table view controller?

I have a table view inside a normal view controller and I was wondering how I should go out populating it with data?

After researching it, everywhere I have seen it done uses a table view controller: I am just using a view controller with a table view inside it.

How should I populate this with data? I have created an IBOutlet in my ViewController.swift, but I'm not sure what to do to add data.

The reason I am not using a table view controller is because I couldn't get the navigation bar to show up and I heard that the navigation bar scrolled.

Is it possible to use a table view inside a normal view controller? Should I be using table view controller? If it is possible to use a table view inside a normal view controller, how do I populate the table view?

The coding language I am using is swift.

A UITableViewController is basically a normal UIViewController which has its main view replaced with a UITableView and uses the UITableviewDelegate and UITableViewDataSource protocols.

UITableViewController is subclass of UIViewController.

So just add the protocols and use it exactly the way you use it in UITableViewController.
