# init(frame:style:)

Creates and returns a table view with the specified frame and style.

## Declaration

```swift
init(frame: CGRect, style: UITableView.Style)
```

## Parameters

- `frame`: A rectangle specifying the initial location and size of the table view in its superview’s coordinates. The frame of the table view changes as table cells are added and deleted.
- `style`: A constant that specifies the style of the table view. For a list of valid styles, see doc://com.apple.uikit/documentation/UIKit/UITableView/Style-swift.enum.

## Return Value

Return Value Returns an initialized UITableView object.

## Discussion

Discussion You must specify the style of a table view when you create it, and you can’t change that style later. If you initialize the table view with the UIView method init(frame:), the UITableView.Style.plain style is used as a default.
