现在不需要写扩展了。

Apple终于在其算法包中引入了unique()方法，可以在符合Sequence协议的任何类型上使用。

import Algorithms

let numbers = [1, 2, 3, 3, 2, 3, 3, 2, 2, 2, 1]
print(numbers.uniqued()) // prints [1, 2, 3]

如果你把两个扩展都放在你的代码中，更快的Hashable版本将在可能的情况下使用，Equatable版本将用作备用版本。

public extension Sequence where Element: Hashable {
  /// The elements of the sequence, with duplicates removed.
  /// - Note: Has equivalent elements to `Set(self)`.
  @available(
  swift, deprecated: 5.4,
  message: "Doesn't compile without the constant in Swift 5.3."
  )
  var firstUniqueElements: [Element] {
    let getSelf: (Element) -> Element = \.self
    return firstUniqueElements(getSelf)
  }
}

public extension Sequence where Element: Equatable {
  /// The elements of the sequence, with duplicates removed.
  /// - Note: Has equivalent elements to `Set(self)`.
  @available(
  swift, deprecated: 5.4,
  message: "Doesn't compile without the constant in Swift 5.3."
  )
  var firstUniqueElements: [Element] {
    let getSelf: (Element) -> Element = \.self
    return firstUniqueElements(getSelf)
  }
}

public extension Sequence {
  /// The elements of the sequences, with "duplicates" removed
  /// based on a closure.
  func firstUniqueElements<Hashable: Swift.Hashable>(
    _ getHashable: (Element) -> Hashable
  ) -> [Element] {
    var set: Set<Hashable> = []
    return filter { set.insert(getHashable($0)).inserted }
  }

  /// The elements of the sequence, with "duplicates" removed,
  /// based on a closure.
  func firstUniqueElements<Equatable: Swift.Equatable>(
    _ getEquatable: (Element) -> Equatable
  ) -> [Element] {
    reduce(into: []) { uniqueElements, element in
      if zip(
        uniqueElements.lazy.map(getEquatable),
        AnyIterator { [equatable = getEquatable(element)] in equatable }
      ).allSatisfy(!=) {
        uniqueElements.append(element)
      }
    }
  }
}

如果顺序不重要，那么你总是可以使用这个Set初始化式。

使用有序集

您可以将具有重复元素的数组传递给以下通用函数，该函数处理有序Set并返回没有重复元素的新数组。

import Foundation

internal func withoutDuplicates<T>(_ array: [T]) -> [T] {
    
    let orderedSet: NSMutableOrderedSet = []
    var modifiedArray = [T]()
    
    orderedSet.addObjects(from: array)
    
    for i in 0...(orderedSet.count - 1) {
        modifiedArray.append(orderedSet[i] as! T)
    }
    return modifiedArray
}

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

let arrayOfStrings: [String] = ["A","A","A","B","B","C","C"]
let arrayOfIntegers: [UInt8] = [1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3]
let arrayOfBooleans: [Bool] = [true, false, false, true]

let ordered_01 = withoutDuplicates(arrayOfStrings)
let ordered_02 = withoutDuplicates(arrayOfIntegers)
let ordered_03 = withoutDuplicates(arrayOfBooleans)

结果:

// ordered_01  –––>  ["A","B","C"]
// ordered_02  –––>  [1, 2, 3]
// ordered_03  –––>  [true, false]

使用无序集

如果新数组中元素的顺序对您来说并不重要，则在处理时使用无序集。无序集中的元素类型必须符合哈希协议。

import UIKit

fileprivate func noDuplicates<T: Hashable>(_ array: [T]) -> [T] {
    
    var unorderedSet = Set<T>()
    var modifiedArray: [T] = []
    
    for i in 0...(array.count - 1) {
        unorderedSet.insert(array[i])
    }
    for i in unorderedSet.indices {
        modifiedArray.append(unorderedSet[i])
    }
    return modifiedArray
}

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

let arrayOfInts: [Int] = [10, 5, 7, 200, -500, 10, 7, 5]
let arrayOfStrs: [String] = ["A","A","A","B","B","C","C"]
let arrayOfBools: [Bool] = [true, false, false, true]

let unordered_01 = noDuplicates(arrayOfInts)
let unordered_02 = noDuplicates(arrayOfStrs)
let unordered_03 = noDuplicates(arrayOfBools)

结果:

// unordered_01  –––>  [200, 7, 10, -500, 5]
// unordered_02  –––>  ["B", "C", "A"]
// unordered_03  –––>  [false, true]

下面是SequenceType上的一个类别，它保留了数组的原始顺序，但使用Set来进行contains查找，以避免数组的contains(_:)方法上的O(n)代价。

public extension Sequence where Element: Hashable {

    /// Return the sequence with all duplicates removed.
    ///
    /// i.e. `[ 1, 2, 3, 1, 2 ].uniqued() == [ 1, 2, 3 ]`
    ///
    /// - note: Taken from stackoverflow.com/a/46354989/3141234, as 
    ///         per @Alexander's comment.
    func uniqued() -> [Element] {
        var seen = Set<Element>()
        return self.filter { seen.insert($0).inserted }
    }
}

如果你不是Hashable或Equatable，你可以传入一个谓词来进行相等性检查:

extension Sequence {

    /// Return the sequence with all duplicates removed.
    ///
    /// Duplicate, in this case, is defined as returning `true` from `comparator`.
    ///
    /// - note: Taken from stackoverflow.com/a/46354989/3141234
    func uniqued(comparator: @escaping (Element, Element) throws -> Bool) rethrows -> [Element] {
        var buffer: [Element] = []

        for element in self {
            // If element is already in buffer, skip to the next element
            if try buffer.contains(where: { try comparator(element, $0) }) {
                continue
            }

            buffer.append(element)
        }

        return buffer
    }
}

现在，如果你没有Hashable，但是是Equatable，你可以使用这个方法:

extension Sequence where Element: Equatable {

    /// Return the sequence with all duplicates removed.
    ///
    /// i.e. `[ 1, 2, 3, 1, 2 ].uniqued() == [ 1, 2, 3 ]`
    ///
    /// - note: Taken from stackoverflow.com/a/46354989/3141234
    func uniqued() -> [Element] {
        return self.uniqued(comparator: ==)
    }
}

最后，你可以添加一个unique的关键路径版本，如下所示:

extension Sequence {

    /// Returns the sequence with duplicate elements removed, performing the comparison using the property at
    /// the supplied keypath.
    ///
    /// i.e.
    ///
    /// ```
    /// [
    ///   MyStruct(value: "Hello"),
    ///   MyStruct(value: "Hello"),
    ///   MyStruct(value: "World")
    ///  ].uniqued(\.value)
    /// ```
    /// would result in
    ///
    /// ```
    /// [
    ///   MyStruct(value: "Hello"),
    ///   MyStruct(value: "World")
    /// ]
    /// ```
    ///
    /// - note: Taken from stackoverflow.com/a/46354989/3141234
    ///
    func uniqued<T: Equatable>(_ keyPath: KeyPath<Element, T>) -> [Element] {
        self.uniqued { $0[keyPath: keyPath] == $1[keyPath: keyPath] }
    }
}

你可以把这两个都放在你的应用程序中，Swift会根据你的序列的迭代器选择正确的一个。元素类型。

对于El Capitan，您可以扩展此方法以包括多个键盘，如下所示:

    /// Returns the sequence with duplicate elements removed, performing the comparison using the property at
    /// the supplied keypaths.
    ///
    /// i.e.
    ///
    /// ```
    /// [
    ///   MyStruct(value1: "Hello", value2: "Paula"),
    ///   MyStruct(value1: "Hello", value2: "Paula"),
    ///   MyStruct(value1: "Hello", value2: "Bean"),
    ///   MyStruct(value1: "World", value2: "Sigh")
    ///  ].uniqued(\.value1, \.value2)
    /// ```
    /// would result in
    ///
    /// ```
    /// [
    ///   MyStruct(value1: "Hello", value2: "Paula"),
    ///   MyStruct(value1: "Hello", value2: "Bean"),
    ///   MyStruct(value1: "World", value2: "Sigh")
    /// ]
    /// ```
    ///
    /// - note: Taken from stackoverflow.com/a/46354989/3141234
    ///
    func uniqued<T: Equatable, U: Equatable>(_ keyPath1: KeyPath<Element, T>, _ keyPath2: KeyPath<Element, U>) -> [Element] {
        self.uniqued {
            $0[keyPath: keyPath1] == $1[keyPath: keyPath1] && $0[keyPath: keyPath2] == $1[keyPath: keyPath2]
        }
    }

但是(恕我直言)你最好把你自己的block传递给self.unique。

您总是可以使用Dictionary，因为Dictionary只能保存惟一的值。例如:

var arrayOfDates: NSArray = ["15/04/01","15/04/01","15/04/02","15/04/02","15/04/03","15/04/03","15/04/03"]

var datesOnlyDict = NSMutableDictionary()
var x = Int()

for (x=0;x<(arrayOfDates.count);x++) {
    let date = arrayOfDates[x] as String
    datesOnlyDict.setValue("foo", forKey: date)
}

let uniqueDatesArray: NSArray = datesOnlyDict.allKeys // uniqueDatesArray = ["15/04/01", "15/04/03", "15/04/02"]

println(uniqueDatesArray.count)  // = 3

正如你所看到的，生成的数组并不总是按“顺序”排列。如果你想对数组排序，添加这个:

var sortedArray = sorted(datesOnlyArray) {
(obj1, obj2) in

    let p1 = obj1 as String
    let p2 = obj2 as String
    return p1 < p2
}

println(sortedArray) // = ["15/04/01", "15/04/02", "15/04/03"]

.

func removeDublicate (ab: [Int]) -> [Int] {
var answer1:[Int] = []
for i in ab {
    if !answer1.contains(i) {
        answer1.append(i)
    }}
return answer1
}

用法:

let f = removeDublicate(ab: [1,2,2])
print(f)
