首先将数组的所有元素添加到NSOrderedSet中。 这将删除数组中的所有重复项。 再次将这个orderedset转换为一个数组。

做……

例子

let array = [1,1,1,1,2,2,2,2,4,6,8]

let orderedSet : NSOrderedSet = NSOrderedSet(array: array)

let arrayWithoutDuplicates : NSArray = orderedSet.array as NSArray

输出arraywithoutduplates - [1,2,4,6,8]

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。

这里有很多答案，但我错过了这个简单的扩展，适合Swift 2及以上:

extension Array where Element:Equatable {
    func removeDuplicates() -> [Element] {
        var result = [Element]()

        for value in self {
            if result.contains(value) == false {
                result.append(value)
            }
        }

        return result
    }
}

这非常简单。可以这样调用:

let arrayOfInts = [2, 2, 4, 4]
print(arrayOfInts.removeDuplicates()) // Prints: [2, 4]

基于属性的过滤

要根据属性筛选数组，你可以使用这个方法:

extension Array {

    func filterDuplicates(@noescape includeElement: (lhs:Element, rhs:Element) -> Bool) -> [Element]{
        var results = [Element]()

        forEach { (element) in
            let existingElements = results.filter {
                return includeElement(lhs: element, rhs: $0)
            }
            if existingElements.count == 0 {
                results.append(element)
            }
        }

        return results
    }
}

你可以这样调用它:

let filteredElements = myElements.filterDuplicates { $0.PropertyOne == $1.PropertyOne && $0.PropertyTwo == $1.PropertyTwo }

我相信提供一个uniq()和uniqInPlace()函数通过删除数组的值来改变数组是很好的。这类似于Swift提供的sort()和sortInPlace()函数。此外，由于它是一个数组，它应该保持它的原始元素顺序。

extension Array where Element: Equatable {

    public func uniq() -> [Element] {
        var arrayCopy = self
        arrayCopy.uniqInPlace()
        return arrayCopy
    }

    mutating public func uniqInPlace() {
        var seen = [Element]()
        var index = 0
        for element in self {
            if seen.contains(element) {
                removeAtIndex(index)
            } else {
                seen.append(element)
                index++
            }
        }
    }
}

你只能在变量数组(即var)上使用uniqInPlace()，因为你不能改变常量数组(即let)。

一些用法示例:

var numbers = [1, 6, 2, 2, 4, 1, 5]
numbers.uniqInPlace() // array is now [1, 6, 2, 4, 5]

let strings = ["Y", "Z", "A", "Y", "B", "Y", "Z"]
let uniqStrings = strings.uniq() // uniqStrings is now ["Y", "Z", "A", "B"]

在Swift 3.0中，我发现了最简单和最快的解决方案，可以在保持顺序的同时消除重复的元素:

extension Array where Element:Hashable {
    var unique: [Element] {
        var set = Set<Element>() //the unique list kept in a Set for fast retrieval
        var arrayOrdered = [Element]() //keeping the unique list of elements but ordered
        for value in self {
            if !set.contains(value) {
                set.insert(value)
                arrayOrdered.append(value)
            }
        }

        return arrayOrdered
    }
}

为此，我做了一个尽可能简单的扩展。

extension Array where Element: Equatable {

    func containsHowMany(_ elem: Element) -> Int {
        return reduce(0) { $1 == elem ? $0 + 1 : $0 }
    }

    func duplicatesRemoved() -> Array {
        return self.filter { self.containsHowMany($0) == 1 }
    }

    mutating func removeDuplicates() {
        self = self.duplicatesRemoved(()
    }
}

您可以使用duplicatesRemoved()来获取一个新数组，它的重复元素将被删除，或者使用removeduplicate()来改变自身。看到的:

let arr = [1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 7, 8]

let noDuplicates = arr.duplicatesRemoved()
print(arr) // [1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 7, 8]
print(noDuplicates) // [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]

arr.removeDuplicates()
print(arr) // [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]
