在思考方面，这可能被称为反转。你会发现世界是圆的而不是平的。“你真的不需要知道角色的索引来处理它。”作为一名C程序员，我发现这也很难接受! 你的行“let index = letters.characters.indexOf("c")!”本身就足够了。 例如，要去掉c，你可以用…(操场粘贴)

    var letters = "abcdefg"
  //let index = letters.rangeOfString("c")!.startIndex //is the same as
    let index = letters.characters.indexOf("c")!
    range = letters.characters.indexOf("c")!...letters.characters.indexOf("c")!
    letters.removeRange(range)
    letters

然而，如果你想要一个索引，你需要返回一个实际的index而不是Int值，因为Int值对于任何实际使用都需要额外的步骤。这些扩展返回一个索引，一个特定字符的计数，以及这个游乐场插件代码将演示的范围。

extension String
{
    public func firstIndexOfCharacter(aCharacter: Character) -> String.CharacterView.Index? {

        for index in self.characters.indices {
            if self[index] == aCharacter {
                return index
            }

        }
        return nil
    }

    public func returnCountOfThisCharacterInString(aCharacter: Character) -> Int? {

        var count = 0
        for letters in self.characters{

            if aCharacter == letters{

                count++
            }
        }
        return count
    }


    public func rangeToCharacterFromStart(aCharacter: Character) -> Range<Index>? {

        for index in self.characters.indices {
            if self[index] == aCharacter {
                let range = self.startIndex...index
                return range
            }

        }
        return nil
    }

}



var MyLittleString = "MyVery:important String"

var theIndex = MyLittleString.firstIndexOfCharacter(":")

var countOfColons = MyLittleString.returnCountOfThisCharacterInString(":")

var theCharacterAtIndex:Character = MyLittleString[theIndex!]

var theRange = MyLittleString.rangeToCharacterFromStart(":")
MyLittleString.removeRange(theRange!)

String是NSString的桥接类型，add

import Cocoa

到你的swift文件，并使用所有“旧”的方法。

我知道这是一个旧的答案已经被接受，但你可以找到字符串的索引在几行代码使用:

var str : String = "abcdefghi"
let characterToFind: Character = "c"
let characterIndex = find(str, characterToFind)  //returns 2

一些关于Swift字符串的其他重要信息在这里

如果你只需要一个字符的索引，最简单，快速的解决方案(正如Pascal已经指出的那样)是:

let index = string.characters.index(of: ".")
let intIndex = string.distance(from: string.startIndex, to: index)

extension String{
    func contains(find: String)->Bool{
        return self.range(of: find) != nil
    }
}
 
func check(n:String, h:String)->Int{
    let n1 = n.lowercased()
    let h1 = h.lowercased()//lowercase to make string case insensitive
    var pos = 0 //postion of substring
    if h1.contains(n1){
       // checking if sub string exists
        if let idx = h1.firstIndex(of:n1.first!){
             let pos1 = h1.distance(from: h1.startIndex, to: idx)
           pos = pos1
        }
        return pos
    }
    else{
        return -1
    }
}
 
print(check(n:"@", h:"hithisispushker,he is 99 a good Boy"))//put substring in n: and string in h

查找子字符串的索引

let str = "abcdecd"
if let range: Range<String.Index> = str.range(of: "cd") {
    let index: Int = str.distance(from: str.startIndex, to: range.lowerBound)
    print("index: ", index) //index: 2
}
else {
    print("substring not found")
}

查找字符索引

let str = "abcdecd"
if let firstIndex = str.firstIndex(of: "c") {
    let index: Int = str.distance(from: str.startIndex, to: firstIndex)
    print("index: ", index)   //index: 2
}
else {
    print("symbol not found")
}
