# Arrays
|
|
|
|
Arrays are a collection type that stores elements of the **same type** in an **ordered list**.
|
|
|
|
### Initialization
|
|
|
|
```swift
|
|
//create immutable array.
|
|
let oddNumbers: [Int] = [1,3,5,7,9];
|
|
let evenNumbers = [2,4,6,8];
|
|
|
|
//create an empty mutable array
|
|
var numbers = [Int]();
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Modification
|
|
Add a single element to an array
|
|
```swift
|
|
let someNumber = 0
|
|
numbers.append(someNumber)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Add multiple elements to an array
|
|
```swift
|
|
numbers += oddNumbers
|
|
numbers.append(contentsOf: evenNumbers)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Remove and Insert at Index
|
|
```swift
|
|
//remove element from an array at index
|
|
let removedInt = numbers.remove(at: 4)
|
|
//insert element at specific index
|
|
numbers.insert(removedInt, at: 4)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Iteration
|
|
|
|
You can iterate over a set using a for-in loop. Below are two different ways to do essentially the same thing.
|
|
|
|
```swift
|
|
var showNumbers = ""
|
|
numbers = numbers.sorted() //sort the numbers in ascending order
|
|
for i in 0..<numbers.count {
|
|
showNumbers += "\(numbers[i]) "
|
|
}
|
|
print(showNumbers);
|
|
|
|
showNumbers = ""
|
|
for i in numbers {
|
|
showNumbers += "\(numbers[i]) "
|
|
}
|
|
print(showNumbers);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The output(s) for the above are "0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9"
|
