I have a dynamic table inside a view fetching data from Firebase. I need to transfer data from the label in the TableViewCell to a label in the View. Since this is happening on the same screen, the prepareForSegue method cannot be implemented. I am currently writing the database based on the value from the label in the tableViewCell and then fetching it in the label in the View. But there is a considerable lag and sometimes the values differ as well. Is there any way to do it locally? I have to files, one for the TableViewCell and one for the View itself.
P.S I am fairly new to Swift and iOS
This is what my Screen currently looks like And I wish to send data from point A to point B
This the PledgeViewController
