You can define an extension on interval types: extension HalfOpenInterval where Bound: Strideable { func by(n: Bound.Stride) -> StrideTo<Bound> { return start.stride(to: end, by: n) } }
extension ClosedInterval where Bound: Strideable { func by(n: Bound.Stride) -> StrideThrough<Bound> { return start.stride(through: end, by: n) } } Which maybe gives you slightly more elegant usage: for lat in (CGFloat(-60)...60).by(30) { print(lat) } for lat in (CGFloat(-60)..<60).by(30) { print(lat) } > On 19 Dec 2015, at 18:59, Gavin Eadie via swift-dev <swift-dev@swift.org> > wrote: > > With C-style for loops to be removed from the language to general acclaim > (including mine), is the following the best way to perform the required > looping: > > for lat in (CGFloat(-60.0)).stride(through: +60.0, by: 30.0) { > path.moveToPoint(CGPointMake(-180.0, lat)) > path.lineToPoint(CGPointMake(+180.0, lat)) > } > > for lon in (CGFloat(-150.0)).stride(through: +150.0, by: 30.0) { > path.moveToPoint(CGPointMake(lon, +90.0)) > path.lineToPoint(CGPointMake(lon, -90.0)) > } > > That seems a slightly cumbersome usage.
