[swift-users] In pursuit to a more idiomatic Swift

Hi everyone! While learning and in pursuit a to more idiomatic Swift, I put together a playground where I’ve been experimenting with some simple sorting techniques. I’d appreciate any ideas on how to improve those algorithms into a more Swift-y form. So, here is the repository

[swift-users] Appending '[element]' recursively

Hi everyone! I’m migrating some code from Swift 2.2. to Swift 3 and something weird happened. Is this is a bug or I’m missing something? // Swift 2.2 func quickSort(_ array: [Int]) -> [Int] { guard array.count > 1 else { return array } let (pivot, rest) = (array.first!,

[swift-users] Checking/getting custom objects from a collection

Hi everyone! I’m experimenting with Entity-Component Systems and I’d appreciate if you could help me working on how to check/get custom objects from a collection. The idea is to verify if an entity contains a particular component and, if

[swift-users] Simplify chained calls

Hi everyone! I’m experimenting with this functional selection sort code and I wonder if anyone could help me simplify the portion indicated below. // Swift 3 func selectionSort(_ array: [Int]) -> [Int] { guard array.count > 1, let minElement = array.min() else { return array

Re: [swift-users] generic function called recursively not compiling

Hey Ray, Feel free to take a look at the swift-3 branch of this repo , too. There are several quick sort implementations there, from classic to Swift-y! Cheers, — A > On Aug 4, 2016, at 12:02 PM, Ray Fix via swift-users >

Re: [swift-users] Simplify chained calls

Hi Tod, thanks for sharing your ideas. Much appreciated! Feel free to take a look at my playground where I explore many other alternative implementations. https://github.com/adrfer/Sort/tree/swift-3 Best, — A > On Jun 30, 2016, at 11:32 AM, Tod Cunningham via swift-users >
