Check text field Live - swift

Question

I have found this answer How to check text field input at real time?
This is what I am looking for. However I am having trouble actually implementing this code. Also my current geographical location makes googling almost impossible.
I want to be able to change the background color of the next text field if the correct number is entered into the previous text field. textfieldTwo background color will change to green if the correct value is entered in textFieldOne. If the value is incorrect then nothing will happen. Please help me out. I have two text fields called textFieldOne and textFieldTwo and nothing else in the code.

Just pop this in your main view controller in an empty project (try using iphone 6 on the simulator)
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController {
var txtField:UITextField!
var txtFieldTwo:UITextField!
var rightNumber = 10
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
//txtFieldOne
var txtField = UITextField()
txtField.frame = CGRectMake(100, 100, 200, 40)
txtField.borderStyle = UITextBorderStyle.None
txtField.backgroundColor = UIColor.blueColor()
txtField.layer.cornerRadius = 5
self.view.addSubview(txtField)
//txtFieldTwo
var txtFieldTwo = UITextField()
txtFieldTwo.frame = CGRectMake(100, 150, 200, 40)
txtFieldTwo.borderStyle = UITextBorderStyle.None
txtFieldTwo.backgroundColor = UIColor.blueColor()
txtFieldTwo.layer.cornerRadius = 5
self.view.addSubview(txtFieldTwo)
txtField.addTarget(self, action: "checkForRightNumber", forControlEvents: UIControlEvents.AllEditingEvents)
self.txtField = txtField
self.txtFieldTwo = txtFieldTwo
}
func checkForRightNumber() {
let number:Int? = self.txtField.text.toInt()
if number == rightNumber {
self.txtFieldTwo.backgroundColor = UIColor.greenColor()
} else {
self.txtFieldTwo.backgroundColor = UIColor.blueColor()
}
}
}
EDIT: Adding a version with IBOutlets and IBActions
Note that in this example the IBAction is connected to txtFieldOne on Sent Events / Editing Changed
Also, make sure your Text Fields border colors are set to None. In the storyboard, the way to do this is to choose the left most option with the dashed border around it. That's so you can color the backgrounds. You can use layer.cornerRadius to set the roundness of the border's edges.
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var txtField: UITextField!
#IBOutlet weak var txtFieldTwo: UITextField!
var rightNumber = 10
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
}
#IBAction func checkForRightNumber(sender: AnyObject) {
let number:Int? = self.txtField.text.toInt()
if number == rightNumber {
self.txtFieldTwo.backgroundColor = UIColor.greenColor()
} else {
self.txtFieldTwo.backgroundColor = UIColor.blueColor()
}
}
}
