How to add dictionary to array in swift

Question

How to initialize and add values to array following data

(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [name] => First element
            [foo] => bar
        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [name] => Second element
            [foo] => bar2
        )

)

Arrays are delimited by []. Dictionaries are also delimited by the same characters but there are colons : to separate the keys from the values. Try it out and post your results in the question. — Arc676

That's array which contains dictionaries, Is it what you are after?

let myArray = [["name": "First element", "foo": "bar"], ["name": "Second element", "foo": bar2]]

// Edited add items in loop:

var myArray = [[String: String]]()
for i in 0..<10 {

    let dict = ["name": "Item\(i)", "foo": "bar\(i)"]
    myArray.append(dict)
}
print("\(myArray)")

Yes but that will be done in loop so I can't create whole array at once, and I have to initialize it first
