Swift 3 UITableView cell seperator disappears when i remove cell subviews - ios

Question

I have an array type of string arrays and I print it to tableView within for loop.I know its a bad practice loop inside cellForRowAt indexPath: function but I don't have any solution.My Problem is every time I move my tableview on simulator,i insert more subviews on existing ones.it overwrites older ones and to prevent i use
for view in cell.subviews {
view.removeFromSuperview()
}
but it deletes my cell seperators with my older cell labels.How can i remove only cell data not my seperator.
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath:IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
var cell:UITableViewCell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "cell")! as UITableViewCell
//print(cell.subviews)
for view in cell.subviews {
view.removeFromSuperview()
}
for i in 0..<globalHeaderStructArray.count{
var newLabel = UILabel(frame: CGRect(x:xCoordination, y:10, width:Double(globalHeaderStructArray[i].width)!, height:30.0))
newLabel.font = UIFont(name: "Avenir", size: 17.0)
newLabel.textColor = UIColor.darkGray
newLabel.text = "\(globalDataArray[indexPath.row][i])"
var scrollview = UIScrollView(frame: cell.bounds)
scrollview.contentSize = CGSize(width:cell.bounds.width * 5, height:cell.bounds.height) // will be 5 times as wide as the cell
scrollview.isPagingEnabled = true
cell.contentView.addSubview(scrollview)
cell.addSubview(newLabel)
xCoordination += Double(globalHeaderStructArray[i].width)!
}
xCoordination = 0.0
return cell
}

You can set tag to your label and scrollView object and check that inside loop like this.
for view in cell.subviews {
if view.tag == 101 || view tag == 102 {
view.removeFromSuperview()
}
}
for i in 0..<globalHeaderStructArray.count{
var newLabel = UILabel(frame: CGRect(x:xCoordination, y:10, width:Double(globalHeaderStructArray[i].width)!, height:30.0))
newLabel.font = UIFont(name: "Avenir", size: 17.0)
newLabel.textColor = UIColor.darkGray
newLabel.text = "\(globalDataArray[indexPath.row][i])"
newLabel.tag = 101
var scrollview = UIScrollView(frame: cell.bounds)
scrollview.contentSize = CGSize(width:cell.bounds.width * 5, height:cell.bounds.height) // will be 5 times as wide as the cell
scrollview.isPagingEnabled = true
scrollview.tag = 102
cell.contentView.addSubview(scrollview)
cell.addSubview(newLabel)
xCoordination += Double(globalHeaderStructArray[i].width)!
}
Tips: It is batter if you use interface builder to design your cell instead of adding UI element at run time.
