How to use a generated digit from a chronometer displayed in a UILabel as an Integer in the View Controller?

Question

We used a chronometer using the method of NSTimer and we want to use the value that this one displays in a UILabel in the View Controller to do some other simple operations but it doesn't work.

Our code to transform it from String to Integer is: var labelText : String = countingLabel.text!

Thank You! We are new in this (7 hours) and will greatly appreciate any help

To convert the string to an int, just call:

var timerInt = Int(labelText)
