你可以很容易地转换为一个Set和一个数组:

let unique = Array(Set(originals))

这并不能保证保持数组的原始顺序。

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]

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]

斯威夫特2

用uniq函数回答:

func uniq<S: SequenceType, E: Hashable where E==S.Generator.Element>(source: S) -> [E] {
    var seen: [E:Bool] = [:]
    return source.filter({ (v) -> Bool in
        return seen.updateValue(true, forKey: v) == nil
    })
}

use:

var test = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,9,9,9,9,9]
print(uniq(test)) //1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

使用Set或NSOrderedSet删除重复项，然后转换回数组:

let uniqueUnordered = Array(Set(array))
let uniqueOrdered = Array(NSOrderedSet(array: array))

受https://www.swiftbysundell.com/posts/the-power-of-key-paths-in-swift的启发，我们可以声明一个更强大的工具，它能够过滤任何keyPath上的唯一性。感谢Alexander关于复杂性的各种答案的评论，下面的解决方案应该是最优的。

Non-mutating解决方案

我们扩展了一个函数，它可以过滤任意keyPath上的唯一性:

extension RangeReplaceableCollection {
    /// Returns a collection containing, in order, the first instances of
    /// elements of the sequence that compare equally for the keyPath.
    func unique<T: Hashable>(for keyPath: KeyPath<Element, T>) -> Self {
        var unique = Set<T>()
        return filter { unique.insert($0[keyPath: keyPath]).inserted }
    }
}

注意:在你的对象不符合RangeReplaceableCollection，但符合Sequence的情况下，你可以有这个额外的扩展，但返回类型将始终是一个数组:

extension Sequence {
    /// Returns an array containing, in order, the first instances of
    /// elements of the sequence that compare equally for the keyPath.
    func unique<T: Hashable>(for keyPath: KeyPath<Element, T>) -> [Element] {
        var unique = Set<T>()
        return filter { unique.insert($0[keyPath: keyPath]).inserted }
    }
}

使用

如果我们想要元素本身的唯一性，如问题中所示，我们使用keyPath \.self:

let a = [1, 4, 2, 2, 6, 24, 15, 2, 60, 15, 6]
let b = a.unique(for: \.self)
/* b is [1, 4, 2, 6, 24, 15, 60] */

如果我们想要其他东西的唯一性(比如对象集合的id)，那么我们使用我们选择的keyPath:

let a = [CGPoint(x: 1, y: 1), CGPoint(x: 2, y: 1), CGPoint(x: 1, y: 2)]
let b = a.unique(for: \.y)
/* b is [{x 1 y 1}, {x 1 y 2}] */

变异的解决方案

我们扩展了一个变异函数，它能够过滤任意keyPath上的唯一性:

extension RangeReplaceableCollection {
    /// Keeps only, in order, the first instances of
    /// elements of the collection that compare equally for the keyPath.
    mutating func uniqueInPlace<T: Hashable>(for keyPath: KeyPath<Element, T>) {
        var unique = Set<T>()
        removeAll { !unique.insert($0[keyPath: keyPath]).inserted }
    }
}

使用

如果我们想要元素本身的唯一性，如问题中所示，我们使用keyPath \.self:

var a = [1, 4, 2, 2, 6, 24, 15, 2, 60, 15, 6]
a.uniqueInPlace(for: \.self)
/* a is [1, 4, 2, 6, 24, 15, 60] */

如果我们想要其他东西的唯一性(比如对象集合的id)，那么我们使用我们选择的keyPath:

var a = [CGPoint(x: 1, y: 1), CGPoint(x: 2, y: 1), CGPoint(x: 1, y: 2)]
a.uniqueInPlace(for: \.y)
/* a is [{x 1 y 1}, {x 1 y 2}] */
