Apply Strikethrough in iOS

When we want to show a cutter label in our application, Sometimes there exist an old price of that product or something else and we want that will show the cutter on the price and show the new price . To apply cutter we use the NSStrikethroughAttributeName that will cut the label. After applying cutter on the label, we can show the new label. Example NSStrikethroughAttributeName is :-

NSMutableAttributedString *attributeString = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithString:"Rs 55"];
                    [attributeString addAttribute:NSStrikethroughStyleAttributeName
                                            value:@2
                                            range:NSMakeRange(0, [attributeString length])];
                    UILabel *nameLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake((SCREEN_WIDTH/3+5)+5, mainInternalY, SCREEN_WIDTH/2, 22)];
                    nameLabel.attributedText = attributeString;
                    [nameLabel setTextColor:[UIColor blackColor]];
                    [nameLabel setFont:[UIFont fontWithName: @"Trebuchet MS" size: 18.0f]];
                    [paintView addSubview:nameLabel];
                    
                    
                    UILabel *PRICE = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake((SCREEN_WIDTH/3+5)+70, mainInternalY, SCREEN_WIDTH/2, 22)];
                    [PRICE setText:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",dict[@"price_with_reduction"][@"text"]] ];
                    [PRICE setTextColor:[UIColor blackColor]];
                    [PRICE setFont:[UIFont fontWithName: @"Trebuchet MS" size: 16.0f]];
                    [paintView addSubview:PRICE];

NSMutableAttributedString *attributeString = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithString:"Rs 55"];

[attributeString addAttribute:NSStrikethroughStyleAttributeName

value:@2

range:NSMakeRange(0, [attributeString length])];

UILabel *nameLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake((SCREEN_WIDTH/3+5)+5, mainInternalY, SCREEN_WIDTH/2, 22)];

nameLabel.attributedText = attributeString;

[nameLabel setTextColor:[UIColor blackColor]];

[nameLabel setFont:[UIFont fontWithName: @"Trebuchet MS" size: 18.0f]];

[paintView addSubview:nameLabel];

UILabel *PRICE = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake((SCREEN_WIDTH/3+5)+70, mainInternalY, SCREEN_WIDTH/2, 22)];

[PRICE setText:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",dict[@"price_with_reduction"][@"text"]] ];

[PRICE setTextColor:[UIColor blackColor]];

[PRICE setFont:[UIFont fontWithName: @"Trebuchet MS" size: 16.0f]];

[paintView addSubview:PRICE];
