Creating 2 dynamic cell prototypes in my ios swift TableView with different heights

Question

I have to create a UIView Table in swift with 2 prototype cells, each having different heights. My first cell will only have a label and a button in same line, so its height should not be too much. Where as second cell will be having a image, 4 labels etc. so I need height for this. Is there a way I can change the height of dynamic tableview cell in code or IB?

Thanks! enter image description here

Set your controller as delegate for your UITableView. Then implement the optional function

func tableView(tableView: UITableView, heightForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> CGFloat {
    if indexPath.row == 0
      return 180
    else 
      return 40 }

could you use the function:

override func tableView(tableView: UITableView, heightForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> CGFloat {
    // return height for each cell
}

sorry if I've misunderstood the question.

func tableView(tableView: UITableView, heightForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> CGFloat {

this is a method you can use to set the height of all your cell according to the indexpath that is a table view delegate method . set the height of cell it it programatically . if you want to set the height through Ui that you can set a static height for all the cell .
