My app continues to show a black screen. How do I fix it?

I am building an app in the Swift intermediate course to show random fun facts. However, when I run it, it shows up as a black screen with only a battery icon in the top. If I explore more it says I have an error. Here is the line:

class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate { (It also says:) Thread 1: signal SIGABRT

How do I fix this? Thank you!

These errors are typically caused when you have a UI Item that is no longer connected. Did you delete something from your app UILabel, UIButton, etc and then not delete the connection?
