I would like to use this same code on multiple pages of photos (to help my son recognize people). So instead of reinserting the name of each person, I created the appearingInPhoto (tuple or array), so I can utilize just .a .b .c, instead of having to go and rename each line of code.

Is there a way to simplify the code further, so I can just have code that checks if a button is pressed (check that sender.currentTitle is equal to any of the tuple values) and if yes, run this code?

print("pressed (appearingInPhoto.a)")
 label.text = appearingInPhoto.a
 soundName = appearingInPhoto.a

This is the full function now:

var appearingInPhoto = (a:"omar", b:"john", c:"thomas")

@IBAction func buttonPressed(_ sender: UIButton) 
 var soundName: String? = nil
 if sender.currentTitle == appearingInPhoto.a 
 print("pressed (appearingInPhoto.a)")
 label.text = appearingInPhoto.a
 soundName = appearingInPhoto.a
 else if sender.currentTitle == appearingInPhoto.b 
 print("pressed (appearingInPhoto.b)")
 label.text = appearingInPhoto.b
 soundName = appearingInPhoto.b
 else if sender.currentTitle == appearingInPhoto.c 
 print("pressed (appearingInPhoto.c)")
 label.text = appearingInPhoto.c
 soundName = appearingInPhoto.c
 
 if let soundName = soundName 
 playSoundFile(soundName)
 
 

Slightly modified (using array):

var appearingInPhoto = ["omar", "john", "thomas"]

@IBAction func buttonPressed(_ sender: UIButton) 

 guard let soundName = sender.currentTitle else 
 return
 
 if appearingInPhoto.contains(soundName) 
 print("pressed (soundName)")
 label.text = soundName
 playSoundFile(soundName)
