# sectionCount

The number of sections in the list.

## Declaration

```swift
var sectionCount: Int { get }
```

## Discussion

Discussion This value never exceeds maximumSectionCount. If you initialize a list, or call the updateSections(_:) method, with an array larger than maximumSectionCount, CarPlay trims the array to an appropriate size.
