到目前为止，下标(_:)不可用。就像我们不能这么做一样

str[0] 

与字符串。我们必须提供"String "。指数” 但是，我们如何给出我们自己的索引号呢，我们可以用，

string[str.index(str.startIndex, offsetBy: 0)]

swift 2.0子字符串更新

public extension String {
    public subscript (i: Int) -> String {
        return self.substringWithRange(self.startIndex..<self.startIndex.advancedBy(i + 1))
    }

    public subscript (r: Range<Int>) -> String {
        get {
            return self.substringWithRange(self.startIndex.advancedBy(r.startIndex)..<self.startIndex.advancedBy(r.endIndex))
        }
    }

}

你可以通过将字符串转换为数组，并通过下标获得特定的索引，如下所示

var str = "Hello"
let s = Array(str)[2]
print(s)

这是最好最简单的方法之一

        let yourString = "thisString"
        print(Array(yourString)[8])

将字符串中的每个字母放入数组 然后选择第9个

获取和设置下标(字符串和子字符串)- Swift 4.2

Swift 4.2, Xcode 10

我的回答是基于@ alcarlson的回答。 唯一的区别是你可以返回一个Substring或String(在某些情况下，一个字符)。您还可以获取和设置下标。 最后，我的回答比@alecarlson的回答更麻烦，也更长，因此，我建议你把它放在源文件中。

一个类似蟒蛇的解决方案，允许你使用负下标，

var str = "Hello world!"
str[-1]        // "!"

可能是:

extension String {
    subscript (var index:Int)->Character{
        get {
            let n = distance(self.startIndex, self.endIndex)
            index %= n
            if index < 0 { index += n }
            return self[advance(startIndex, index)]
        }
    }
}

顺便说一下，调换整个python的切片符号可能是值得的
