Parentheses in function declarations without arguments is unnecessary syntax.
When calling, the empty parentheses have the purpose of making it explicit that a function call is made instead of a variable being accessed. But when declaring functions, the empty parentheses does not convey anything and just looks like an implementation detail of the compiler. Please make them optional.
func viewDidLoad {
super.viewDidLoad()
}
