Programmatically copy array to new view in Storyboard

Question

I am currently trying to copy an array I have to a new view that I am creating programmatically. I actually have found how to do this with normal navigation controller syntax. My issue is I'm using the new storyboard and I don't know the syntax to do the same thing. Here is the code I have..

CustomerListViewController *second = [[CustomerListViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"CustomerListViewController" bundle: nil];
[second setValue:customerList.list];
// [self.navigationController pushViewController:second animated:YES];
[self performSegueWithIdentifier:@"LoginSegue" sender:self];

as you can see, I am programmatically creating the second view controller and storing the local array customerList.List to the created view controller's array variable. The next step is to open the new created view. The line commented out is the syntax to open the view under a navigation controller. The line below is the storyboard way, but minus specifying the view I created. I need to know the syntax for the storyboard to do the same thing as the navigation controller.

It does not make sense to create your own instance of CustomerListViewController here if you're using segues. The segue itself will create the view controller from the storyboard and the instance you have created here will do nothing.

Instead, just call performSegueWithIdentifier:sender: here. Then implement the prepareForSegue:sender: method like this:

- (void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender
{
    if ([segue.identifier isEqualToString:@"LoginSegue"]) {
        CustomerListViewController *destinationController = (CustomerListViewController *)segue.destinationViewController;
        [destinationController setValue:customerList.list];
    }
}
