Swift 3 - check, how many identical elements array contents [duplicate] - arrays

This question already has answers here:
Removing duplicate elements from an array in Swift
(49 answers)
Closed 5 years ago.
I have an [Int] array and I need to check for all elements, that don't have identical value with some another element. Those non- identical elements I would like to insert to a new array.
var spojeni1 = [1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4] // Here it is values 2,3
var NewArray = [Int]()
for i in spojeni1 {
if { // the value hasn't another identical value in the array
NewArray.append(i)
}
}
Hope it is clear, thank you

This can be done in a single line:
let numbers = [1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4] // Here it is values 2,3
let uniques = Set(numbers).filter{ (n) in numbers.filter{$0==n}.count == 1 }
UPDATE
With Swift 4, you could also use a dictionary constructor to do it:
let uniques = Dictionary(grouping:numbers){$0}.filter{$1.count==1}.map{$0.0}

I would make use of 2 sets:
var seenOnce: Set<Int> = []
var seenMorethanOnce: Set<Int> = []
let input = [1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4]
for number in input
{
if seenMorethanOnce.contains(number)
{
// Skip it since it's already been detected as a dupe.
}
else if seenOnce.contains(number)
{
// We saw it once, and now we have a dupe.
seenOnce.remove(number)
seenMorethanOnce.insert(number)
}
else
{
// First time seeing this number.
seenOnce.insert(number)
}
}
When that for loop finishes, the seenOnce set will have your values, and you can easily convert that to an array if you wish.

How to get each N element of array in Swift? [duplicate]

Swift Append every second item to Array
(5 answers)
Closed 1 year ago.
I have an array of, for example 10 elements:
var Ar = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]
And I need to make new array from current array by taken each second element for example -
var newAr = [1,3,5,7,9]
How can I do it in Swift?
You can loop over all the indices, and if an odd number, append it to a result array.
Example:
let arr = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
var result = [Int]()
for index in arr.indices {
if !index.isMultiple(of: 2) {
result.append(arr[index])
}
}
print(result)

Swift : Performing operations on certain elements of an array

So, something is bugging me with the syntax in Swift for performing operations on Arrays of Ints.
What I wanna do is this : I have an array of Ints which is outputted from a function, its size (count) varies between say 2 and 6 for now, depending on buttons I press in my app.
For each array that is outputted and that contain n ints, I want to create n arrays on which to perform an other action later on.
These "sub" arrays are supposed to be calculated this way :
newArray1's values should be array's values - the value of the first index of newArray1
newArray2's values should be array's values - the value of the second index of newArray2
etc... (I'll automate the number of newArrays according to the array.count)
An other condition applying for those new arrays is that if at a given index the value is negative, I add 12 (so it'll occur for newArray2 at index 1, for newArray3 at indexes 1 & 2, etc... as long as those newArrays are created).
Here's how I wanted to perform that (I created this with dummy arbitrary array in the playground for the sake of testing before inserting the correct stuff in my app code) :
var array : [Int] = [2,4,6,8,9]
var newArray2 = [Int]()
var increment2 = Int()
increment2 = array[1]
newArray2 = array.map {$0 - increment2}
for i in 0..<newArray2.count {
if array[i] < 0 {
newArray2[i] = array[i] + 12
} else {
newArray2[i] = array[i]
}
}
print(array)
print(newArray2)
So of course it doesn't work because I can't seem to figure how to correctly perform operations on Arrays...
Intuitively it seems in my first if statement I'm comparing not the element at index i but i itself, not sure how to reformat that though...
Any help is most welcome, thanks in advance ! :)
[EDIT: I just edited the names of newArray1 to newArray2, same for increments, so that I have negative values and it matches the index value of 1 which is the second element of my main array]
You seem to mean this:
let arr = [2,4,6,8,9]
var results = [[Int]]()
for i in arr.indices {
results.append(arr.map {
var diff = $0-arr[i]
if diff < 0 { diff += 12 }
return diff
})
}
// results is now:
// [[0, 2, 4, 6, 7],
// [10, 0, 2, 4, 5],
// [8, 10, 0, 2, 3],
// [6, 8, 10, 0, 1],
// [5, 7, 9, 11, 0]]

Trying to make a specific index in my array to no longer be of array type [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
Flatten [Any] Array Swift
(3 answers)
Closed 4 years ago.
I have an array that takes in a set of values. At a certain index in the array, the value is an array. So it looks like this
[1, 2, 3, [4, 5]]
I'm trying to change the array value to be like this
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
How would you go back about doing this in Swift?
Here is how I get the result
let array = [value1, value2, [value3, value4]].compactMap{$0}
Here is a straightforward solution that handles int values and arrays of ints in the original array
let arr:[Any] = [1, 2, 3, [4, 5]]
var output: [Int] = []
for x in arr {
if let value = x as? Int {
output.append(value)
} else if let array = x as? [Int] {
output.append(contentsOf: array)
}
//else ignore
}

Swift remove objects in Array range

I have an array as a property in a class.
Class Custom {
let objArray: [CustomClass]
}
I want to remove some items in objArray in a range. So I have done below
let newVar = objArray[1...3]
new objects are correctly removed but return value is in newVar since array is value type how I can make the original reflect the same.
Below code gets Index out of bounds as the indexes incremented
for i in 1...3 {
objArray.remove(at: 1)
}
======
What is the best approach for the above issue.
Any hint in right direction would be highly appreciated.
Use removeSubrange method of array. Make a valid range by element location and length.
var array = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]
let range = 1...3
array.removeSubrange(range)
print(array)
Output: [1, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]
Note: Range should be a valid range I mean it should not be out from array.
Here is yours way (by for loop)
We can not remove objects by their indexes in a loop because every time object removes array's count and objects indexes will be change so out of range crash can come or you might get a wrong output. So you will have to take help of another array. See below example:-
var array = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]
var newArray: [Int] = []
let minRange = 1
let maxRange = 3
for i in 0..<array.count {
if i >= minRange && i <= maxRange {
/// Avoid
continue
}
newArray.append(array[i])
}
print(newArray)
Output: [1, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]
If you want to remove items by index in a range you have to inverse the indexes to start with the highest index otherwise you will get the out-of-range exception. Consider also that indexes are zero-based.
That's a safe version which checks also the upper bound of the array.
var array = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
for i in (0...3).reversed() where i < array.count {
array.remove(at: i)
}
print(array) // [5, 6]
You can find a more generic and more efficient solution here
This solution also returns the removed values
extension Array {
/**
* ## Examples:
* var arr = [0,1,2,3]
* arr.remove((0..<2)) // 0,1
* arr // 2,3
*/
mutating func remove(_ range: Range<Int>) -> Array {
let values = Array(self[range])
self.removeSubrange(range)
return values
}
}
The issue you are having is that an array index is zero based, which is to say, the first element in an array is accessed bv:
Let firstArrayValue = objArray[0]
So in the case of your for loop, you need to subtact 1 from i to get the proper index value:
for i in 1…3 {
objArray.remove(at: i-1)
}
A better way is to loop through the indices by starting at 0. i = 0 will reference the first value in your objArray:
for i in 0...2 {
objArray.remove(at: i)
}
If you need to remove elements in the middle of the array you must first find their index location then remove. To find the index:
let indexLocation = objArray(indexOf: "Value in Array")
Then remove:
objArray.remove(at: indexLocation)

Splitting an Array into Sub-Arrays in Swift [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
In Swift, an efficient function that separates an array into 2 arrays based on a predicate
(7 answers)
Closed 6 months ago.
Problem
Given an array of values how can I split it into sub-arrays made of elements that are equal?
Example
Given this array
let numbers = [1, 1, 1, 3, 3, 4]
I want this output
[[1,1,1], [3, 3], [4]]
What I am NOT looking for
A possible way of solving this would be creating some sort of index to indicate the occurrences of each element like this.
let indexes = [1:3, 3:2, 4:1]
And finally use the index to rebuild the output array.
let subsequences = indexes.sort { $0.0.0 < $0.1.0 }.reduce([Int]()) { (res, elm) -> [Int] in
return res + [Int](count: elm.1, repeatedValue: elm.0)
}
However with this solution I am losing the original values. Of course in this case it's not a big problem (an Int value is still and Inteven if recreated) but I would like to apply this solution to more complex data structures like this
struct Starship: Equatable {
let name: String
let warpSpeed: Int
}
func ==(left:Starship, right:Starship) -> Bool {
return left.warpSpeed == right.warpSpeed
}
Final considerations
The function I am looking for would be some kind of reverse of flatten(), infact
let subsequences: [[Int]] = [[1,1,1], [3, 3], [4]]
print(Array(subsequences.flatten())) // [1, 1, 1, 3, 3, 4]
I hope I made myself clear, let me know should you need further details.
// extract unique numbers using a set, then
// map sub-arrays of the original arrays with a filter on each distinct number
let numbers = [1, 1, 1, 3, 3, 4]
let numberGroups = Set(numbers).map{ value in return numbers.filter{$0==value} }
print(numberGroups)
[EDIT] changed to use Set Initializer as suggested by Hamish
[EDIT2] Swift 4 added an initializer to Dictionary that will do this more efficiently:
let numberGroups = Array(Dictionary(grouping:numbers){$0}.values)
For a list of objects to be grouped by one of their properties:
let objectGroups = Array(Dictionary(grouping:objects){$0.property}.values)
If you could use CocoaPods/Carthage/Swift Package Manager/etc. you could use packages like oisdk/SwiftSequence which provides the group() method:
numbers.lazy.group()
// should return a sequence that generates [1, 1, 1], [3, 3], [4].
or UsrNameu1/TraverSwift which provides groupBy:
groupBy(SequenceOf(numbers), ==)
If you don't want to add external dependencies, you could always write an algorithm like:
func group<S: SequenceType where S.Generator.Element: Equatable>(seq: S) -> [[S.Generator.Element]] {
var result: [[S.Generator.Element]] = []
var current: [S.Generator.Element] = []
for element in seq {
if current.isEmpty || element == current[0] {
current.append(element)
} else {
result.append(current)
current = [element]
}
}
result.append(current)
return result
}
group(numbers)
// returns [[1, 1, 1], [3, 3], [4]].
Let's assume that you have an unsorted array of items. You will need to sort the initial array then you will have something like this:
[1, 1, 1, 3, 3, 4]
After that you will initialize two arrays: one for storing arrays and another one to use it as a current array.
Loop through the initial array and:
if the current value isn't different from the last one, push it to the current array
otherwise push the current array to the first one then empty the current array.
Hope it helps!
Worth mentioning, using Swift Algorithms this is now a one-liner:
import Algorithms
let numbers = [1, 1, 1, 3, 3, 4]
let chunks: [[Int]] = numbers.chunked(by: ==).map { .init($0) }
print(chunks) // [[1, 1, 1], [3, 3], [4]]
