最简单的方法是使用NSOrderedSet，它存储唯一的元素并保持元素的顺序。如:

func removeDuplicates(from items: [Int]) -> [Int] {
    let uniqueItems = NSOrderedSet(array: items)
    return (uniqueItems.array as? [Int]) ?? []
}

let arr = [1, 4, 2, 2, 6, 24, 15, 2, 60, 15, 6]
removeDuplicates(from: arr)

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]

在数组中保留唯一值和排序。

(使用Swift 3)

    var top3score: [Int] = []


    outerLoop: for i in 0..<top10score.count {
        dlog(message: String(top10score[i]))

        if top3score.count == 3 {
            break
        }

        for aTop3score in top3score {
            if aTop3score == top10score[i] {
                continue outerLoop
            }
        }

        top3score.append(top10score[i])

    }

    print("top10score is \(top10score)")  //[14, 5, 5, 5, 3, 3, 2, 2, 2, 2]
    print("top3score is \(top3score)")   //[14, 5, 3]

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]

包含相等性检查，而插入检查哈希，最安全的检查方式如下:

extension Array where Element: Hashable {

    /// Big O(N) version. Updated since @Adrian's comment. 
    var uniques: Array {
        // Go front to back, add element to buffer if it isn't a repeat.
         var buffer: [Element] = []
         var dictionary: [Element: Int] = [:]
         for element in self where dictionary[element] == nil {
             buffer.append(element)
             dictionary[element] = 1
         }
         return buffer
    }
}

从数组中删除重复项的另一个Swift 3.0解决方案。该解决方案改进了许多已经提出的其他解决方案:

保留输入数组中元素的顺序 线性复杂度O(n):单通滤波器O(n) +集插入O(1)

给定整数数组:

let numberArray = [10, 1, 2, 3, 2, 1, 15, 4, 5, 6, 7, 3, 2, 12, 2, 5, 5, 6, 10, 7, 8, 3, 3, 45, 5, 15, 6, 7, 8, 7]

功能代码:

func orderedSet<T: Hashable>(array: Array<T>) -> Array<T> {
    var unique = Set<T>()
    return array.filter { element in
        return unique.insert(element).inserted
    }
}

orderedSet(array: numberArray)  // [10, 1, 2, 3, 15, 4, 5, 6, 7, 12, 8, 45]

数组扩展代码:

extension Array where Element:Hashable {
    var orderedSet: Array {
        var unique = Set<Element>()
        return filter { element in
            return unique.insert(element).inserted
        }
    }
}

numberArray.orderedSet // [10, 1, 2, 3, 15, 4, 5, 6, 7, 12, 8, 45]

这段代码利用了Set上的插入操作返回的结果，该操作在O(1)上执行，并返回一个元组，指示该项是否被插入，或者该项是否已经存在于Set中。

如果项目在集合中，过滤器将从最终结果中排除它。
