var stringValue = "55"

var convertToDouble = Double((stringValue as NSString).doubleValue)

同样有效的方法:

// Init default Double variable
var scanned: Double()

let scanner = NSScanner(string: "String to Scan")
scanner.scanDouble(&scanned)

// scanned has now the scanned value if something was found.

请到操场上检查!

let sString = "236.86"

var dNumber = NSNumberFormatter().numberFromString(sString)
var nDouble = dNumber!
var eNumber = Double(nDouble) * 3.7

顺便说一下，在我的Xcode中

.toDouble() -不存在

从非数值字符串中创建值0.0

我们可以使用CDouble值，它将通过myString.doubleValue获得

在Swift 2.0中使用此代码

let strWithFloat = "78.65"
let floatFromString = Double(strWithFloat)

下面是一个扩展方法，允许你简单地调用doubleValue()在一个Swift字符串上，并得到一个双返回(示例输出先来)

println("543.29".doubleValue())
println("543".doubleValue())
println(".29".doubleValue())
println("0.29".doubleValue())

println("-543.29".doubleValue())
println("-543".doubleValue())
println("-.29".doubleValue())
println("-0.29".doubleValue())

//prints
543.29
543.0
0.29
0.29
-543.29
-543.0
-0.29
-0.29

下面是扩展方法:

extension String {
    func doubleValue() -> Double
    {
        let minusAscii: UInt8 = 45
        let dotAscii: UInt8 = 46
        let zeroAscii: UInt8 = 48

        var res = 0.0
        let ascii = self.utf8

        var whole = [Double]()
        var current = ascii.startIndex

        let negative = current != ascii.endIndex && ascii[current] == minusAscii
        if (negative)
        {
            current = current.successor()
        }

        while current != ascii.endIndex && ascii[current] != dotAscii
        {
            whole.append(Double(ascii[current] - zeroAscii))
            current = current.successor()
        }

        //whole number
        var factor: Double = 1
        for var i = countElements(whole) - 1; i >= 0; i--
        {
            res += Double(whole[i]) * factor
            factor *= 10
        }

        //mantissa
        if current != ascii.endIndex
        {
            factor = 0.1
            current = current.successor()
            while current != ascii.endIndex
            {
                res += Double(ascii[current] - zeroAscii) * factor
                factor *= 0.1
                current = current.successor()
           }
        }

        if (negative)
        {
            res *= -1;
        }

        return res
    }
}

没有错误检查，但如果需要，可以添加它。
