我可能有一个像下面这样的数组:

[1, 4, 2, 2, 6, 24, 15, 2, 60, 15, 6]

或者,实际上,任何类似类型的数据部分的序列。我要做的是确保每个相同的元素只有一个。例如,上面的数组将变成:

[1, 4, 2, 6, 24, 15, 60]

请注意,删除了2、6和15的重复项,以确保每个相同的元素中只有一个。Swift是否提供了一种容易做到这一点的方法,还是我必须自己做?


当前回答

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]

其他回答

另一种(如果不是最优的)解决方案是使用不可变类型而不是变量:

func deleteDuplicates<S: ExtensibleCollectionType where S.Generator.Element: Equatable>(seq:S)-> S {
    let s = reduce(seq, S()){
        ac, x in contains(ac,x) ? ac : ac + [x]
    }
    return s
}

包括对比Jean-Pillippe的命令式方法和函数式方法。

作为奖励,这个函数不仅可以处理数组,还可以处理字符串!

编辑:这个答案是在2014年为Swift 1.0编写的(在Set在Swift中可用之前)。它不需要Hashable一致性,并且在二次时间内运行。

你可以自己卷,比如这样:

func unique<S : Sequence, T : Hashable>(source: S) -> [T] where S.Iterator.Element == T {
    var buffer = [T]()
    var added = Set<T>()
    for elem in source {
        if !added.contains(elem) {
            buffer.append(elem)
            added.insert(elem)
        }
    }
    return buffer
}

let vals = [1, 4, 2, 2, 6, 24, 15, 2, 60, 15, 6]
let uniqueVals = uniq(vals) // [1, 4, 2, 6, 24, 15, 60]

作为Array的扩展:

extension Array where Element: Hashable {
    func uniqued() -> Array {
        var buffer = Array()
        var added = Set<Element>()
        for elem in self {
            if !added.contains(elem) {
                buffer.append(elem)
                added.insert(elem)
            }
        }
        return buffer
    }
}

或者更优雅一点(Swift 4/5):

extension Sequence where Element: Hashable {
    func uniqued() -> [Element] {
        var set = Set<Element>()
        return filter { set.insert($0).inserted }
    }
}

将被使用:

[1,2,4,2,1].uniqued()  // => [1,2,4]

在Swift 5中

 var array: [String] =  ["Aman", "Sumit", "Aman", "Sumit", "Mohan", "Mohan", "Amit"]

 let uniq = Array(Set(array))
 print(uniq)

输出将是

 ["Sumit", "Mohan", "Amit", "Aman"]

这里我对对象做了O(n)解。不是少行解决方案,而是……

struct DistinctWrapper <T>: Hashable {
    var underlyingObject: T
    var distinctAttribute: String
    var hashValue: Int {
        return distinctAttribute.hashValue
    }
}
func distinct<S : SequenceType, T where S.Generator.Element == T>(source: S,
                                                                distinctAttribute: (T) -> String,
                                                                resolution: (T, T) -> T) -> [T] {
    let wrappers: [DistinctWrapper<T>] = source.map({
        return DistinctWrapper(underlyingObject: $0, distinctAttribute: distinctAttribute($0))
    })
    var added = Set<DistinctWrapper<T>>()
    for wrapper in wrappers {
        if let indexOfExisting = added.indexOf(wrapper) {
            let old = added[indexOfExisting]
            let winner = resolution(old.underlyingObject, wrapper.underlyingObject)
            added.insert(DistinctWrapper(underlyingObject: winner, distinctAttribute: distinctAttribute(winner)))
        } else {
            added.insert(wrapper)
        }
    }
    return Array(added).map( { return $0.underlyingObject } )
}
func == <T>(lhs: DistinctWrapper<T>, rhs: DistinctWrapper<T>) -> Bool {
    return lhs.hashValue == rhs.hashValue
}

// tests
// case : perhaps we want to get distinct addressbook list which may contain duplicated contacts like Irma and Irma Burgess with same phone numbers
// solution : definitely we want to exclude Irma and keep Irma Burgess
class Person {
    var name: String
    var phoneNumber: String
    init(_ name: String, _ phoneNumber: String) {
        self.name = name
        self.phoneNumber = phoneNumber
    }
}

let persons: [Person] = [Person("Irma Burgess", "11-22-33"), Person("Lester Davidson", "44-66-22"), Person("Irma", "11-22-33")]
let distinctPersons = distinct(persons,
    distinctAttribute: { (person: Person) -> String in
        return person.phoneNumber
    },
    resolution:
    { (p1, p2) -> Person in
        return p1.name.characters.count > p2.name.characters.count ? p1 : p2
    }
)
// distinctPersons contains ("Irma Burgess", "11-22-33") and ("Lester Davidson", "44-66-22")

extension Sequence where Element: Hashable {
    func unique() -> [Element] {
        NSOrderedSet(array: self as! [Any]).array as! [Element]
    }
