13.

What is the purpose of the 'super.viewDidLoad()' call in the viewDidLoad method?

To create a new view hierarchy

To reset all constraints

To initialize the hosting controller

To ensure that the view controller’s standard setup tasks are performed

None

14.

Which function is used to dynamically load a SwiftUI view into a hosting controller during a segue?

IBSegueAction

prepare(for:sender:)

loadView()

viewWillAppear()

None

15.

What is the purpose of the UIHostingController in SwiftUI?

To replace UIKit entirely

To enhance the performance of SwiftUI views

To integrate SwiftUI views into an existing UIKit project

To handle networking tasks in SwiftUI

None

16.

How can a SwiftUI view be added to a storyboard scene using the UIHostingController?

By adding constraints to the SwiftUI view

By writing a new SwiftUI template

By using the Swift Package Manager

By using Interface Builder and dragging a Hosting View Controller to the storyboard

None

17.

What is the first step in creating a project that integrates SwiftUI with UIKit using storyboards?

Adding a SwiftUI view directly to the Interface Builder

Running the project on a simulator

Creating a new UIKit Storyboard-based project

Creating a new SwiftUI project

None

18.

Which method is called to notify UIKit that a hosting controller has been moved to a container view controller?

present(_:animated:completion:)

didMove(toParent:)

viewWillAppear()

addChild(_:)

None

19.

What is the purpose of the translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints property?

To improve performance

To enable automatic resizing

To prevent conflicts between manual and automatic constraints

To disable the view temporarily

None

20.

What does the UIHostingController's rootView property represent?

The UIKit view to be displayed

The SwiftUI view that will be embedded

The navigation controller of the app

The background color of the view

None

21.

What is an IBSegueAction used for in this context?

To handle the segue action and load a SwiftUI view in a hosting controller

To declare a new SwiftUI component

To manage network requests in SwiftUI

To optimize view updates

None

22.

How is a SwiftUI view embedded in a storyboard using a hosting controller?

By creating a new SwiftUI View template

By adding it directly as a subview

By adding constraints only

By using the Interface Builder to add a Hosting View Controller

None

23.

What is the purpose of the 'didMove(toParent:)' method when using UIHostingController?

To perform animations

To notify the parent view controller that the child has been added

To initialize a SwiftUI view

To remove a view from memory

None

24.

What is a 'container view' in the context of integrating SwiftUI with UIKit?

A UIView that allows embedding of a child view controller within another view controller

A view that holds multiple SwiftUI components

A SwiftUI-exclusive component

A view designed only for macOS

None

25.

What is the purpose of the 'addChild' method in the context of UIHostingController?

To display a SwiftUI view on macOS

To optimize memory usage

To add the UIHostingController as a child to another view controller

To initialize the hosting controller

None

26.

How can a SwiftUI view be embedded directly into a layout of an existing UIViewController?

By creating a new storyboard
