ios - UITableView Checkmark ONLY ONE Row at a Time

Question

With this code, I can check multiple rows in a table.

But what I want is to only have one row checked at a time. Here's my code:

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    
    [tableView deselectRowAtIndexPath:indexPath animated:YES];
    
    UITableViewCell *theCell = [tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath];
    
    if (theCell.accessoryType == UITableViewCellAccessoryNone) {
        theCell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryCheckmark;
    } else if (theCell.accessoryType == UITableViewCellAccessoryCheckmark) {
        theCell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryNone;
    }
}

If a user selects a different row, then I want the old row to simply automatically uncheck. Don't know how to do that.

Objective-C:

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath   *)indexPath
{
     [tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath].accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryCheckmark;
}

-(void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didDeselectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath 
{
    [tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath].accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryNone;
}

Swift:

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
    tableView.cellForRow(at: indexPath)?.accessoryType = .checkmark
}

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didDeselectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
    tableView.cellForRow(at: indexPath)?.accessoryType = .none
}
