Making table view section expand swift

I am following this tutorial for expanding and collapsing my table view section. As this demo is done in swift 2.2 I have made all the changes according to swift 3.0 . I am stuck at the below function at if condition(currentSectionCells[row]["isVisible"]) which gives me error as "Type 'NSFastEnumerationIterator.Element' (aka 'Any' has no subscript members)'".

func getIndicesOfVisibleRows() {
    visibleRowsPerSection.removeAll()

    for currentSectionCells in cellDescriptors {
        var visibleRows = [Int]()

        for row in 0...((currentSectionCells as! [[String: AnyObject]]).count - 1) {
            if currentSectionCells[row]["isVisible"] as! Bool == true {
                visibleRows.append(row)
            }
        }

        visibleRowsPerSection.append(visibleRows)
    }
}

I have tried type casting it as below

    func getIndicesOfVisibleRows() {
    visibleRowsPerSection.removeAll()

    for currentSectionCells in cellDescriptors {
        var visibleRows = [Int]()

        for row in 0...((((currentSectionCells) as? NSMutableArray)?.count)! - 1) {

            let temp = [currentSectionCells][row] as? NSMutableDictionary
            let temp2 = temp?["isVisible"] as! Bool

            if temp2  == true {
                visibleRows.append(row)
            }
        }

        visibleRowsPerSection.append(visibleRows)
    }
}

But this gives me a crash at runtime on this line "let temp2 = temp?["isVisible"] as! Bool" Crash says "EXC_BAD_INSTRUCTION" and the temp shows as nil.

Please help guys. TIA

Table View Delegate and Data Source

func numberOfSectionsInTableView(tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
    if cellDescriptors != nil {
        return cellDescriptors.count
    }
    else {
        return 0
    }
}

    let currentCellDescriptor = getCellDescriptorForIndexPath(indexPath: indexPath as NSIndexPath)
    let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: currentCellDescriptor["cellIdentifier"] as! String, for: indexPath) as! CustomCell

    if currentCellDescriptor["cellIdentifier"] as! String == "sectionCellIdentifier" {
        if let primaryTitle = currentCellDescriptor["secondaryTitle"]
        {
            cell.sectionTitleLabel.text = primaryTitle as? String
        }
    }

        cell.questionTextView.text = currentCellDescriptor["secondaryTitle"] as? String
        cell.answerTextView.text =  currentCellDescriptor["answerTitle"] as? String

    }

    return cell
}

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
    let indexOfTappedRow = visibleRowsPerSection[indexPath.section][indexPath.row]

    let temp = cellDescriptors[indexPath.section] as? NSArray
            let temp2 = temp?[indexOfTappedRow ] as? NSDictionary
            let temp3 = temp2?["isExpandable"] as! Bool

    if temp3 == true {
        var shouldExpandAndShowSubRows = false
        if temp3 == false {
            // In this case the cell should expand.
            shouldExpandAndShowSubRows = true
        }

        temp2?.setValue(shouldExpandAndShowSubRows, forKey: "isExpanded")

        for i in (indexOfTappedRow + 1)...(indexOfTappedRow + (temp2?["additionalRows"] as! Int)) {
            (temp![i] as AnyObject).setValue(shouldExpandAndShowSubRows, forKey: "isVisible")
        }
    }
    getIndicesOfVisibleRows()
    tblExpandable.reloadSections(NSIndexSet(index: indexPath.section) as IndexSet, with: UITableViewRowAnimation.fade)
}

Swift 3/4 without use of NSMutable arrays based on the tutorial and all the code wrapped in a model.

class CellsDescriptorModel {
private var cellDescriptors: [[[String:Any]]]!
private var visibleRowsPerSection : [[Int]]

var CellDescriptors : [[[String:Any]]] { get { return cellDescriptors }}
var VisibleRowsPerSection : [[Int]] { get { return visibleRowsPerSection }}

init(plist:String) {
    visibleRowsPerSection = [[Int]]()

    if let url = Bundle.main.url(forResource:plist, withExtension: "plist") {
        do {
            let data = try Data(contentsOf:url)
            cellDescriptors = try PropertyListSerialization.propertyList(from: data, options: [], format: nil) as! [[[String:Any]]]
        } catch {
            print(error)
        }
    }
    getIndicesOfVisibleRows()
}

func getCellDescriptorForIndexPath(indexPath: IndexPath) -> [String: Any] {
    let indexOfVisibleRow = visibleRowsPerSection[indexPath.section][indexPath.row]
    return cellDescriptors[indexPath.section][indexOfVisibleRow]
}

func expandCell(indexPath:IndexPath) {
    let indexOfTappedRow = visibleRowsPerSection[indexPath.section][indexPath.row]
    if cellDescriptors[indexPath.section][indexOfTappedRow] ["isExpandable"] as! Bool == true {
        var shouldExpandAndShowSubRows = false
        if cellDescriptors[indexPath.section][indexOfTappedRow]["isExpanded"] as! Bool == false {
            shouldExpandAndShowSubRows = true
        }

        cellDescriptors[indexPath.section][indexOfTappedRow]["isExpanded"] = shouldExpandAndShowSubRows

        for i in (indexOfTappedRow + 1)...(indexOfTappedRow + (cellDescriptors[indexPath.section][indexOfTappedRow]["additionalRows"] as! Int)) {
            cellDescriptors[indexPath.section][i]["isVisible"] = shouldExpandAndShowSubRows
        }
    }
    else {
           if cellDescriptors[indexPath.section][indexOfTappedRow]["cellIdentifier"] as! String == "DataPickerTableViewCell" {
            var indexOfParentCell: Int!

            for index in (0..<indexOfTappedRow).reversed() {
                if cellDescriptors[indexPath.section][index]["isExpandable"] as! Bool == true {
                    indexOfParentCell = index
                    break
                }
            }

            cellDescriptors[indexPath.section][indexOfParentCell]["secondaryTitle"] = ""
            cellDescriptors[indexPath.section][indexOfParentCell]["isExpanded"] = false

            for i in (indexOfParentCell + 1)...(indexOfParentCell + (cellDescriptors[indexPath.section][indexOfParentCell]["additionalRows"] as! Int)) {
                cellDescriptors[indexPath.section][i]["isVisible"] = false
            }
        }
    }

    getIndicesOfVisibleRows()
}

private func getIndicesOfVisibleRows() {
    visibleRowsPerSection.removeAll()
    for currentSectionCells in cellDescriptors {
        var visibleRows = [Int]()
        for row in 0..<currentSectionCells.count {
            if currentSectionCells[row]["isVisible"] as! Bool == true {
                visibleRows.append(row)
            }
        }
        visibleRowsPerSection.append(visibleRows)
    }
}

Thank You for helping me out, I was stuck at a point where the sections weren't expanding even after your help, so just made some changes in the syntax as Swift 3.0 is very specific about type casting hence the didSelectRowAt wasn't functioning properly. Here is the complete didSelectRowAt method. Happy coding.

public func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath){

    let indexOfTappedRow = visibleRowsPerSection[indexPath.section][indexPath.row]
    if (cellDescriptors[indexPath.section] as! [[String: AnyObject]])[indexOfTappedRow] ["isExpandable"] as! Bool == true {
        var shouldExpandAndShowSubRows = false
        if (cellDescriptors[indexPath.section] as! [[String: AnyObject]])[indexOfTappedRow]["isExpanded"] as! Bool == false {
            // In this case the cell should expand.
            shouldExpandAndShowSubRows = true
        }

        ((cellDescriptors[indexPath.section] as! NSMutableArray)[indexOfTappedRow] as AnyObject).setValue(shouldExpandAndShowSubRows, forKey: "isExpanded")

        for i in (indexOfTappedRow + 1)...(indexOfTappedRow + ((cellDescriptors[indexPath.section]  as! [[String: AnyObject]])[indexOfTappedRow]["additionalRows"] as! Int)) {
            ((cellDescriptors[indexPath.section]  as! NSMutableArray)[i] as AnyObject).setValue(shouldExpandAndShowSubRows, forKey: "isVisible")
        }

    }

I worked on that tutorial as well and completed it successfully in swift3.Your solution is given below modify accordingly.

    class yourClass: UIViewController

        profileTableView.showsVerticalScrollIndicator = false
        loadProfileControllerData()
        profileTableSetUp()
    // Do any additional setup after loading the view.
    }

    func loadProfileControllerData(){
        if let path = Bundle.main.path(forResource: "CellDescriptor", ofType: "plist") {
            cellDescriptors = NSMutableArray(contentsOfFile: path)
        }
        getIndicesOfVisibleRows()
        profileTableView.reloadData()
    }
    // SHOW PARENT VISIBLE ROWS AND SAVE THERE ROW INDEX IN ARRAY
