Say the icons are stored as icon0.png, icon1.png and so on in the app bundle. You can give the icon for each cell as 

cell.imageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:    
              [NSString stringWithFormat:@"icon%d.png",indexPath.row]];

Swift

    cell.imageView?.image = UIImage(named: "icon\(indexPath.row).png")

Well, you have an array somewhere to return the correct number in numberOfRowsInSection. That array is the one you use to fill up the cells. If you only want to display icons in your cells, your array of icons is like that.

So, for example:

UIImage *one = ...;
UIImage *two = ...;
[arrayIcons addObject: one];
[arrayIcons addObject: two];

and in numberOfRowsInSection, return [arrayIcons count].

In the method cellForRowAtIndexPath, you have the variable indexPath. If you want to know which cell you have, you use: indexPath.row.

So, if you load the cell (probably custom, see other answers), which has a UIImageView (say it's named: imageView), and you load the icons in the cells like this:

cell.imageView = [UIImage imageWithContentsOfFile:[arrayIcons objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]];
