我认为这是更好的理解逻辑的方法

var arrayOfInts = [2, 2, 4, 4]
var mainArray = [Int]()

for value in arrayOfInts {

if mainArray.contains(value) != true  {
    
    mainArray.append(value)
    print("mainArray:\(mainArray)")
}}

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]

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 }

我创建了一个时间复杂度为o(n)的高阶函数。另外，像map这样的功能可以返回您想要的任何类型。

extension Sequence {
    func distinct<T,U>(_ provider: (Element) -> (U, T)) -> [T] where U: Hashable {
        var uniqueKeys = Set<U>()
        var distintValues = [T]()
        for object in self {
            let transformed = provider(object)
            if !uniqueKeys.contains(transformed.0) {
                distintValues.append(transformed.1)
                uniqueKeys.insert(transformed.0)
            }
        }
        return distintValues
    }
}

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]

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)
