How to have, in a grouped style, two contents : dynamic and static

I know that there is this topic : "Mixing static and dynamic sections in a grouped table view"

But after many hours, I still don't have finished this litle "project" :

To do that : click there to see a screen capture (It's two grouped style : on the first group the cells are in a dynamic style and the other the cell is in a static style.)

So, I have a list :

var listOfWords = ["Cat", "Dog", "Horse", "Dolfin", "Robot"]

And I would display each word in each cell -> so it is dynamic...

Then In the other group, down I would like to have a "cell-button" where if I click, I could create other word that would be added in the list.

So if someone can help me, it will be helpful ! (please send the code ;-) )

You need to have two sections and manage them differently on the cellForRowAtIndexPath datasource method.

First

Add two sections on the numberOfSections datasource method

override func numberOfSections(in tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
    return 2
}

Second

Manage the numberOfCell datasource method

override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
    switch section {

    case 0:
        return yourArray.count

    case 1:
        return 1

    default:
        return 0

    }

}

Third

Manage each sections accordingly. Based on what you said, you want the first section to be dymanic and the second static.

override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {

    switch indexPath.section {

    // your dynamic cells
    case 0:
        let dynamicCell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "dynamicCell") != nil ? tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "dynamicCell")! : UITableViewCell(style: UITableViewCellStyle.default, reuseIdentifier: "dynamicCell")
        dynamicCell.textLabel?.text = yourArray[indexPath.row]
        return dynamicCell

    // your static cell
    case 1:

        guard let staticCell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "staticCell") else {
            let staticCell = UITableViewCell(style: UITableViewCellStyle.default, reuseIdentifier: "staticCell")
            staticCell.textLabel?.text = "Static"
            return staticCell
        }

        staticCell.textLabel?.text = "Static"
        return staticCell

    default:
        return UITableViewCell()
    }

}

Hope this helps.

Also, there might some minor mistakes with my datasource methods name
