UITableViewDelegate and UITableViewDataSource Default Return Values

Below are the list of default return values of UITableViewDelegate and UITableViewDataSource methods that requires one. Defaults values are returned for invalid parameters (e.g. out of bounds indexes) or indexes where the corresponding child doesn't implement the requested methods. These documentation applies for PropagatingTableDelegate and its subclasses, including CascadingRootTableDelegate and CascadingSectionTableDelegate.

PropagatingTableDelegate has propagationMode property, which could be set to .Row or .Section. Every result that applies to .Row mode will apply to CascadingSectionTableDelegate, and .Section will apply to CascadingRootTableDelegate.
