iOS Simulator crashing in compile - ios

Question

I'm new to xcode and this forum, so sorry for my unprofessional language.
I have a problem with the iOS simulator crashing when I'm trying to run an app. It does not always happen, when I've just started working on a project everything's fine. But then suddenly after I just change something minor in the code the iOS simulator crashes as soon as it starts (compiling works). Xcode then takes me to the debugging page and also shows a lot of output in the bottom-right-corner-window (which I don't know what it's called). I don't get anything of the output, it says something about NSencryption. Once the iOS simulator has started crashing it will crash every time it starts running that project/app. Even if I undo my changes I did when it stopped working and even if I erase all of my code and everything looks like a new project, IT JUST WON'T RUN.
Tried to call Apple support to solve this problem, but they said I should post a question in a forum, hope you can help me as I am really getting tired of this, I can't build anything.
Btw I've tried to reset the iOS simulator but the same problem continues to occur.
Here is the output I get from the 'console': Btw, please tell me if any of this code is sensible and I will remove it.

This is the code that gives me this error:
` import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController {
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
}`
Here is the project

You haven't given many details, but here's how to start resolving your problem.
The bottom of your Xcode app has a debugger window. In that window, messages from the app will display. When your app crashes, it will print out a stack trace which shows what happened just prior to the crash.
When posting here, you'll want to include that in your post. Within that crash log, the top portion will tell you what the problem was--typical issues are nil values or calling something outside a range. Looking further down in the crash log, you'll usually see system stuff (UIKit, etc.). Look at the most recent method called in the class YOU created. Then, find that method in your code and add a breakpoint next to it. The breakpoint will stop execution of your code when it gets to that spot. At the top of the debugger window in the bottom portion of your screen, you'll see a few buttons. One of them is "step over". When you hit your breakpoint, use the "step over" button to execute your code one line at a time. When you get to your problem, it'll crash.
You'll also want to Google the error the debug console spits out. 9 times out of 10, someone's encountered the issue you're encountering and you'll be able to proceed towards resolution of your problem. If that doesn't get the problem solved, you'll want to post here with details and the problematic methods.
Another thing I'd recommend doing is learning how to use GitHub. When I started learning this (and I still AM learning it), git seemed like overkill, but in hindsight it would have been a good idea to learn how to use git from the start. You'll be able to create branches to work on features in your software and merge them to a "master" when you've got new features working. When I was starting, I would get fairly far along, I'd make a minor change and I'd break a bunch of stuff--that will still happen with Git, but you'll have a version of the software that functions. Using Git, you'll be able to always have a stable version that works and you can add features without worrying about blowing up your entire project.
Good luck!
Update for new info:
Your starting point would be Googling this: Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSUnknownKeyException', reason: ViewController setValue:forUndefinedKey:]: this class is not key value coding-compliant for the key.
Also, the import UIKit should be #import UIKit. I suspect this post will steer you in the right direction.
What does this mean? "'NSUnknownKeyException', reason: … this class is not key value coding-compliant for the key X"
Solution:
You have a ViewController.swift file, but your storyboard file is
1) incorrectly named and
2) doesn't have any scenes on it.
Here's what you need to do:
1) rename the storyboard file "Main.storyboard"
2) add a View Controller scene on storyboard, as you currently have no scenes on your storyboard. You do this by dragging & dropping View Controller from the lower right-hand portion of the screen.
3) When your ViewController scene is highlighted, at the top right-hand portion of your screen you should see some buttons. One of them is called "Attributes Inspector". Make sure "Is Initial View Controller" is checked. One button over to the left is "Identity Inspector". Make sure class is set to ViewController.
I'll say it again. If you want to learn iOS, I'd recommend learning GitHub first. Additionally, Stanford University has a free iOS course taught by a guy who worked closely with Steve Jobs which you'll probably find helpful. If it's "too much" starting out, I'd suggest picking up a Big Nerd Ranch book or looking at Ray Wenderlich's website.

Answer 2

The pertinent part of the error message is:
"[<Testing123.ViewController 0x7f93ea8272c0> setValue:forUndefinedKey:]: this class is not key value coding-compliantfor the key addFive.'
Look for where you are using addFive. That is not defined for the instance yu are using it with.
