Dismissing Keyboard for UITextField

I'm new to Swift, and I was recently learning about UITextField and how it delegates. I was wondering if there was a simple way to dismiss the keyboard when taping outside of it (somewhere else in the view). Currently, I am using UITapGestureRecognizer to do this. It works, but I was wondering if there was a simpler way to do it.

  1. Set the delegate of UITextField, Like as UITableviewDataSource,Delegate. Write yourTextFieldDelegate.delegate = self in viewDidLoad()

  2. Then, write this function:

    func textFieldShouldReturn(textField: UITextField) -> Bool {
    titleTextField.resignFirstResponder()
    return true
}

You can use this method to dismiss the keyboard by tapping anywhere on the screen

override func touchesBegan(touches: Set<UITouch>, withEvent event: UIEvent?) {
    self.view.endEditing(true)
}

But be sure to set the delegates beforehand.
