简单的

let str = "My String"
let subStr = str[str.startIndex.advancedBy(3)...str.startIndex.advancedBy(7)]
//"Strin"

斯威夫特3

let startIndex = str.index(str.startIndex, offsetBy: 3)
let endIndex = str.index(str.startIndex, offsetBy: 7)

str[startIndex...endIndex]       // "Strin"
str.substring(to: startIndex)    // "My "
str.substring(from: startIndex)  // "String"

斯威夫特4

substring(to:)和substring(from:)在Swift 4中已弃用。

String(str[..<startIndex])    // "My "
String(str[startIndex...])    // "String"
String(str[startIndex...endIndex])    // "Strin"

http://www.learnswiftonline.com/reference-guides/string-reference-guide-for-swift/ 这表明这是有效的:

var str = "abcd"
str = str.substringToIndex(1)

如果你不关心性能……这可能是Swift 4中最简洁的解决方案

extension String {
    subscript(range: CountableClosedRange<Int>) -> String {
        return enumerated().filter{$0.offset >= range.first! && $0.offset < range.last!}
            .reduce(""){$0 + String($1.element)}
    }
}

它可以让你做这样的事情:

let myStr = "abcd"
myStr[0..<2] // produces "ab"

Rob Napier已经用下标给出了一个很棒的答案。但我觉得有一个缺点，因为没有检查出约束条件。这可能会导致崩溃。所以我修改了扩展，在这里

extension String {
    subscript (r: Range<Int>) -> String? { //Optional String as return value
        get {
            let stringCount = self.characters.count as Int
            //Check for out of boundary condition
            if (stringCount < r.endIndex) || (stringCount < r.startIndex){
                return nil
            }
            let startIndex = self.startIndex.advancedBy(r.startIndex)

            let endIndex = self.startIndex.advancedBy(r.endIndex - r.startIndex)

            return self[Range(start: startIndex, end: endIndex)]
        }
    }
}

下面的输出

var str2 = "Hello, World"

var str3 = str2[0...5]
//Hello,
var str4 = str2[0..<5]
//Hello
var str5 = str2[0..<15]
//nil

所以我建议总是检查if let

if let string = str[0...5]
{
    //Manipulate your string safely
}

简单的解决方案，很少的代码。

做一个扩展，包括基本的子字符串，几乎所有其他语言都有:

extension String {
    func subString(start: Int, end: Int) -> String {
        let startIndex = self.index(self.startIndex, offsetBy: start)
        let endIndex = self.index(startIndex, offsetBy: end)

        let finalString = self.substring(from: startIndex)
        return finalString.substring(to: endIndex)
    }
}

简单地用

someString.subString(start: 0, end: 6)

如何在Swift 2.0中获取子字符串的示例代码

(i)起始索引的子字符串

输入:-

var str = "Swift is very powerful language!"
print(str)

str = str.substringToIndex(str.startIndex.advancedBy(5))
print(str)

输出:

Swift is very powerful language!
Swift

(ii)特定索引的子字符串

输入:-

var str = "Swift is very powerful language!"
print(str)

str = str.substringFromIndex(str.startIndex.advancedBy(6)).substringToIndex(str.startIndex.advancedBy(2))
print(str)

输出:

Swift is very powerful language!
is
