Expanding on Adam’s comment above, if you are trying to display data from a collection class in a table view, you should use an array as the data source, not a set. This is because the objects contained within an NSArray are automatically ordered, based on how the objects are placed into the array, and so will come out in that order. With an NSSet the contents are unordered and thus will come out in any order.

Take a look at Apple’s Values and Collections document, which gives details of the three main types of collection class available in Cocoa: NSArray, NSSet and NSDictionary.
