如果你给枚举一个原始的Int值，它将使循环更容易。

例如，你可以使用anyGenerator来获得一个可以枚举你的值的生成器:

enum Suit: Int, CustomStringConvertible {
    case Spades, Hearts, Diamonds, Clubs
    var description: String {
        switch self {
        case .Spades:   return "Spades"
        case .Hearts:   return "Hearts"
        case .Diamonds: return "Diamonds"
        case .Clubs:    return "Clubs"
        }
    }
    static func enumerate() -> AnyGenerator<Suit> {
        var nextIndex = Spades.rawValue
        return anyGenerator { Suit(rawValue: nextIndex++) }
    }
}
// You can now use it like this:
for suit in Suit.enumerate() {
    suit.description
}
// or like this:
let allSuits: [Suit] = Array(Suit.enumerate())

然而，这看起来像一个相当常见的模式，如果我们可以通过简单地遵循协议使任何枚举类型可枚举，这不是很好吗?有了Swift 2.0和协议扩展，现在我们可以了!

简单地添加到你的项目:

protocol EnumerableEnum {
    init?(rawValue: Int)
    static func firstValue() -> Int
}
extension EnumerableEnum {
    static func enumerate() -> AnyGenerator<Self> {
        var nextIndex = firstRawValue()
        return anyGenerator { Self(rawValue: nextIndex++) }
    }
    static func firstRawValue() -> Int { return 0 }
}

现在，任何时候你创建一个枚举(只要它有一个Int原始值)，你可以通过遵循协议使它可枚举:

enum Rank: Int, EnumerableEnum {
    case Ace, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten, Jack, Queen, King
}
// ...
for rank in Rank.enumerate() { ... }

如果你的枚举值不以0开头(默认值)，重写firstRawValue方法:

enum DeckColor: Int, EnumerableEnum {
    case Red = 10, Blue, Black
    static func firstRawValue() -> Int { return Red.rawValue }
}
// ...
let colors = Array(DeckColor.enumerate())

最后一个Suit类，包括用更标准的CustomStringConvertible协议替换simpleDescription，看起来像这样:

enum Suit: Int, CustomStringConvertible, EnumerableEnum {
    case Spades, Hearts, Diamonds, Clubs
    var description: String {
        switch self {
        case .Spades:   return "Spades"
        case .Hearts:   return "Hearts"
        case .Diamonds: return "Diamonds"
        case .Clubs:    return "Clubs"
        }
    }
}
// ...
for suit in Suit.enumerate() {
    print(suit.description)
}

Swift 3语法:

protocol EnumerableEnum {
    init?(rawValue: Int)
    static func firstRawValue() -> Int
}

extension EnumerableEnum {
    static func enumerate() -> AnyIterator<Self> {
        var nextIndex = firstRawValue()

        let iterator: AnyIterator<Self> = AnyIterator {
            defer { nextIndex = nextIndex + 1 }
            return Self(rawValue: nextIndex)
        }

        return iterator
    }

    static func firstRawValue() -> Int {
        return 0
    }
}

如果您仍然想为Rank和Suit使用枚举，这里有一个不那么神秘的例子。如果您想使用for-in循环遍历每个对象，只需将它们收集到一个Array中。

标准52张牌的例子:

enum Rank: Int {
    case Ace = 1, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten, Jack, Queen, King
    func name() -> String {
        switch self {
        case .Ace:
            return "ace"
        case .Jack:
            return "jack"
        case .Queen:
            return "queen"
        case .King:
            return "king"
        default:
            return String(self.toRaw())
        }
    }
}

enum Suit: Int {
    case Diamonds = 1, Clubs, Hearts, Spades
    func name() -> String {
        switch self {
        case .Diamonds:
            return "diamonds"
        case .Clubs:
            return "clubs"
        case .Hearts:
            return "hearts"
        case .Spades:
            return "spades"
        default:
            return "NOT A VALID SUIT"
        }
    }
}

let Ranks = [
    Rank.Ace,
    Rank.Two,
    Rank.Three,
    Rank.Four,
    Rank.Five,
    Rank.Six,
    Rank.Seven,
    Rank.Eight,
    Rank.Nine,
    Rank.Ten,
    Rank.Jack,
    Rank.Queen,
    Rank.King
]

let Suits = [
    Suit.Diamonds,
    Suit.Clubs,
    Suit.Hearts,
    Suit.Spades
]


class Card {
    var rank: Rank
    var suit: Suit

    init(rank: Rank, suit: Suit) {
        self.rank = rank
        self.suit = suit
    }
}

class Deck {
    var cards = Card[]()

    init() {
        for rank in Ranks {
            for suit in Suits {
                cards.append(Card(rank: rank, suit: suit))
            }
        }
    }
}

var myDeck = Deck()
myDeck.cards.count  // => 52

有时，您可能会处理具有底层原始整数类型的枚举类型，这种类型在整个软件开发生命周期中都会发生变化。下面是一个很适合这种情况的例子:

public class MyClassThatLoadsTexturesEtc
{
    //...

    // Colors used for gems and sectors.
    public enum Color: Int
    {
        // Colors arranged in order of the spectrum.
        case First = 0
        case Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple, Pink
        // --> Add more colors here, between the first and last markers.
        case Last
    }

    //...

    public func preloadGems()
    {
        // Preload all gems.
        for i in (Color.First.toRaw() + 1) ..< (Color.Last.toRaw())
        {
            let color = Color.fromRaw(i)!
            loadColoredTextures(forKey: color)
        }
    }

    //...
}

以下是我的建议。这不是完全令人满意的(我对Swift和OOP很陌生!)，但也许有人可以改进它。这个想法是让每个枚举提供自己的范围信息作为.first和.last属性。它只向每个枚举添加了两行代码:仍然有点硬编码，但至少它没有复制整个集合。它确实需要将Suit enum修改为Int类型，就像Rank enum一样，而不是无类型的。

而不是重复整个解决方案，下面是我添加到。在case语句之后的某个地方(Suit enum类似):

var first: Int { return Ace.toRaw() }
var last: Int { return King.toRaw() }

以及我用来将deck构建为String数组的循环。(问题定义没有说明牌组是如何构造的。)

func createDeck() -> [String] {
    var deck: [String] = []
    var card: String
    for r in Rank.Ace.first...Rank.Ace.last {
        for s in Suit.Hearts.first...Suit.Hearts.last {
            card = Rank.simpleDescription( Rank.fromRaw(r)!)() + " of " + Suit.simpleDescription( Suit.fromRaw(s)!)()
           deck.append( card)
       }
    }
    return deck
}

这并不令人满意，因为属性与元素而不是enum相关联。但它确实为“for”循环增加了清晰度。我希望它是Rank。而不是Rank.Ace.first。它适用于任何元素，但很难看。有人能演示一下如何将其提升到enum级别吗?

为了使它工作，我从Card结构中提取了createDeck方法。我不知道如何从该结构返回一个[String]数组，这似乎是一个糟糕的地方，把这样的方法无论如何。

实验内容是: 实验

在Card中添加一个方法，用于创建一副完整的牌，每一副牌都是rank和花色的组合。

因此，除了添加方法之外，没有修改或增强给定的代码(并且没有使用还没有教过的东西)，我想出了这个解决方案:

struct Card {
    var rank: Rank
    var suit: Suit

    func simpleDescription() -> String {
        return "The \(rank.simpleDescription()) of \(suit.simpleDescription())"
    }

    func createDeck() -> [Card] {
        var deck: [Card] = []
        for rank in Rank.Ace.rawValue...Rank.King.rawValue {
            for suit in Suit.Spades.rawValue...Suit.Clubs.rawValue {
                let card = Card(rank: Rank(rawValue: rank)!, suit: Suit(rawValue: suit)!)
                //println(card.simpleDescription())
                deck += [card]
            }
        }
        return deck
    }
}
let threeOfSpades = Card(rank: .Three, suit: .Spades)
let threeOfSpadesDescription = threeOfSpades.simpleDescription()
let deck = threeOfSpades.createDeck()

enum Rank: Int {
    case Ace = 1
    case Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten
    case Jack, Queen, King

    func simpleDescription() -> String {
        switch self {
        case .Ace: return "ace"
        case .Jack: return "jack"
        case .Queen: return "queen"
        case .King: return "king"
        default: return String(self.toRaw())
        }
    }
}

enum Suit: Int {
    case Spades = 1
    case Hearts, Diamonds, Clubs

    func simpleDescription() -> String {
        switch self {
        case .Spades: return "spades"
        case .Hearts: return "hearts"
        case .Diamonds: return "diamonds"
        case .Clubs: return "clubs"
        }
    }

    func color() -> String {
        switch self {
        case .Spades, .Clubs: return "black"
        case .Hearts, .Diamonds: return "red"
        }
    }
}

struct Card {
    var rank: Rank
    var suit: Suit
    func simpleDescription() -> String {
        return "The \(rank.simpleDescription()) of \(suit.simpleDescription())"
    }

    static func createPokers() -> Card[] {
        let ranks = Array(Rank.Ace.toRaw()...Rank.King.toRaw())
        let suits = Array(Suit.Spades.toRaw()...Suit.Clubs.toRaw())
        let cards = suits.reduce(Card[]()) { (tempCards, suit) in
            tempCards + ranks.map { rank in
                Card(rank: Rank.fromRaw(rank)!, suit: Suit.fromRaw(suit)!)
            }
        }
        return cards
    }
}
