这里有一个解决方案

不使用传统NS类型 对于O(n)来说是相当快的 简洁 保持元素顺序

extension Array where Element: Hashable {

    var uniqueValues: [Element] {
        var allowed = Set(self)
        return compactMap { allowed.remove($0) }
    }
}

下面是使用自定义匹配函数使序列唯一的更灵活的方法。

extension Sequence where Iterator.Element: Hashable {

    func unique(matching: (Iterator.Element, Iterator.Element) -> Bool) -> [Iterator.Element] {

        var uniqueArray: [Iterator.Element] = []
        forEach { element in
            let isUnique = uniqueArray.reduce(true, { (result, item) -> Bool in
                return result && matching(element, item)
            })
            if isUnique {
                uniqueArray.append(element)
            }
        }
        return uniqueArray
    }
}

这是swift 4.2中最简单的方法，如下所示的代码

let keyarray:NSMutableArray = NSMutableArray()

for  object in dataArr
{
    if !keysArray.contains(object){
        keysArray.add(object)
    }
}

print(keysArray)

这里我对对象做了O(n)解。不是少行解决方案，而是……

struct DistinctWrapper <T>: Hashable {
    var underlyingObject: T
    var distinctAttribute: String
    var hashValue: Int {
        return distinctAttribute.hashValue
    }
}
func distinct<S : SequenceType, T where S.Generator.Element == T>(source: S,
                                                                distinctAttribute: (T) -> String,
                                                                resolution: (T, T) -> T) -> [T] {
    let wrappers: [DistinctWrapper<T>] = source.map({
        return DistinctWrapper(underlyingObject: $0, distinctAttribute: distinctAttribute($0))
    })
    var added = Set<DistinctWrapper<T>>()
    for wrapper in wrappers {
        if let indexOfExisting = added.indexOf(wrapper) {
            let old = added[indexOfExisting]
            let winner = resolution(old.underlyingObject, wrapper.underlyingObject)
            added.insert(DistinctWrapper(underlyingObject: winner, distinctAttribute: distinctAttribute(winner)))
        } else {
            added.insert(wrapper)
        }
    }
    return Array(added).map( { return $0.underlyingObject } )
}
func == <T>(lhs: DistinctWrapper<T>, rhs: DistinctWrapper<T>) -> Bool {
    return lhs.hashValue == rhs.hashValue
}

// tests
// case : perhaps we want to get distinct addressbook list which may contain duplicated contacts like Irma and Irma Burgess with same phone numbers
// solution : definitely we want to exclude Irma and keep Irma Burgess
class Person {
    var name: String
    var phoneNumber: String
    init(_ name: String, _ phoneNumber: String) {
        self.name = name
        self.phoneNumber = phoneNumber
    }
}

let persons: [Person] = [Person("Irma Burgess", "11-22-33"), Person("Lester Davidson", "44-66-22"), Person("Irma", "11-22-33")]
let distinctPersons = distinct(persons,
    distinctAttribute: { (person: Person) -> String in
        return person.phoneNumber
    },
    resolution:
    { (p1, p2) -> Person in
        return p1.name.characters.count > p2.name.characters.count ? p1 : p2
    }
)
// distinctPersons contains ("Irma Burgess", "11-22-33") and ("Lester Davidson", "44-66-22")

保证继续订购。

extension Array where Element: Equatable {
    func removingDuplicates() -> Array {
        return reduce(into: []) { result, element in
            if !result.contains(element) {
                result.append(element)
            }
        }
    }
}

你可以很容易地转换为一个Set和一个数组:

let unique = Array(Set(originals))

这并不能保证保持数组的原始顺序。
