Static NSArray of strings – how/where to initialize in a View Controller

Write a class method that returns the array.

+ (NSArray *)titles
{
    static NSArray *_titles;
    static dispatch_once_t onceToken;
    dispatch_once(&onceToken, ^{
        _titles = @[@"Your Move",
                    @"Their Move",
                    @"Won Games",
                    @"Lost Games",
                    @"Options"];
    });
    return _titles;
}

Then you can access it wherever needed like so:

NSArray *titles = [[self class] titles];
