title: How to add item to UITableView?
body: <p>I am trying to add items to a <code>UITableView</code> with a button, here is my code: </p>
  
  <p>In <code>viewDidLoad</code>: <code>repository = [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithObjects: nil];</code></p>
  
  <pre><code>//ADD ITEM TO LIST
                  [repository addObject:repo]; //repository is a NSMutableArray
                  NSIndexPath *indexPath = [NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:([repository count]-1) inSection:0];
                  NSLog(@"Indexpath to add row ----&gt; %ld", (long)indexPath.row);
                  [self.tableView beginUpdates];
                  [self.tableView insertRowsAtIndexPaths:@[indexPath]withRowAnimation:UITableViewRowAnimationBottom];
                  [self.tableView endUpdates];
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It now ads the item to the list, but only if there already is an Cell in the </p>
  
  <pre><code>UITableViewController like i configured here: - (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section
  {
      NSLog(@"NSMutableArray count in \"numbersOfRowsInSection\" ----&gt; %lu", (unsigned long)[repository count]);
  
      return [repository count] + 1;
  
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Here is my log: </p>
