I need to convert an array.count to String values for the count, i.e. array.count = 5 should return ["0","1","2","3","4"]
I've tried
var strRow = array.map { String($0) }
return strRow
but it's not working the way it should. Any help will be appreciated.
Try
return Array(0...array.count)
if you want array of Strings, then just map it
Array(0...array.count).map{String($0)}
Try this (Hint are in the Code Comments):
var array = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] // array.count = 5
var stringArray = [String]()
// 0 ... array.count to go from 0 to 5 included
for index in 0 ... array.count {
// append index with cast it to string
stringArray.append(String(index))
}
print(stringArray)
// result -> ["0","1","2","3","4","5"]
In your question you give an example that array of count 5 should be transformed to ["0","1","2","3","4","5"], that's a 6-count array, are you sure this is what you need? I will assume that you want 5-count array to be transformed to ["0","1","2","3","4"], please correct me in the comments if I'm wrong.
Here's the solution I propose:
let array = [5,5,5,5,5] // count 5
let stringIndices = array.indices.map(String.init)
// ["0", "1", "2", "3", "4"]
