这在Swift 4中是有效的，如果你不想/需要将结果转换为数组，但可以使用Set。默认情况下，结果没有排序，但是可以使用sorted()这样做，它返回一个数组，如print语句所示。

let array = [1, 4, 2, 2, 6, 24, 15, 2, 60, 15, 6]

var result = Set<Int>()
_ = array.map{ result.insert($0) }

print(result.sorted())  // [1, 2, 4, 6, 15, 24, 60]

从数组中删除重复项的另一个Swift 3.0解决方案。该解决方案改进了许多已经提出的其他解决方案:

保留输入数组中元素的顺序 线性复杂度O(n):单通滤波器O(n) +集插入O(1)

给定整数数组:

let numberArray = [10, 1, 2, 3, 2, 1, 15, 4, 5, 6, 7, 3, 2, 12, 2, 5, 5, 6, 10, 7, 8, 3, 3, 45, 5, 15, 6, 7, 8, 7]

功能代码:

func orderedSet<T: Hashable>(array: Array<T>) -> Array<T> {
    var unique = Set<T>()
    return array.filter { element in
        return unique.insert(element).inserted
    }
}

orderedSet(array: numberArray)  // [10, 1, 2, 3, 15, 4, 5, 6, 7, 12, 8, 45]

数组扩展代码:

extension Array where Element:Hashable {
    var orderedSet: Array {
        var unique = Set<Element>()
        return filter { element in
            return unique.insert(element).inserted
        }
    }
}

numberArray.orderedSet // [10, 1, 2, 3, 15, 4, 5, 6, 7, 12, 8, 45]

这段代码利用了Set上的插入操作返回的结果，该操作在O(1)上执行，并返回一个元组，指示该项是否被插入，或者该项是否已经存在于Set中。

如果项目在集合中，过滤器将从最终结果中排除它。

为此，我做了一个尽可能简单的扩展。

extension Array where Element: Equatable {

    func containsHowMany(_ elem: Element) -> Int {
        return reduce(0) { $1 == elem ? $0 + 1 : $0 }
    }

    func duplicatesRemoved() -> Array {
        return self.filter { self.containsHowMany($0) == 1 }
    }

    mutating func removeDuplicates() {
        self = self.duplicatesRemoved(()
    }
}

您可以使用duplicatesRemoved()来获取一个新数组，它的重复元素将被删除，或者使用removeduplicate()来改变自身。看到的:

let arr = [1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 7, 8]

let noDuplicates = arr.duplicatesRemoved()
print(arr) // [1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 7, 8]
print(noDuplicates) // [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]

arr.removeDuplicates()
print(arr) // [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]

最简单的方法是使用NSOrderedSet，它存储唯一的元素并保持元素的顺序。如:

func removeDuplicates(from items: [Int]) -> [Int] {
    let uniqueItems = NSOrderedSet(array: items)
    return (uniqueItems.array as? [Int]) ?? []
}

let arr = [1, 4, 2, 2, 6, 24, 15, 2, 60, 15, 6]
removeDuplicates(from: arr)

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")

斯威夫特4. x:

extension Sequence where Iterator.Element: Hashable {
  func unique() -> [Iterator.Element] {
    return Array(Set<Iterator.Element>(self))
  }

  func uniqueOrdered() -> [Iterator.Element] {
    return reduce([Iterator.Element]()) { $0.contains($1) ? $0 : $0 + [$1] }
  }
}

用法:

["Ljubljana", "London", "Los Angeles", "Ljubljana"].unique()

or

["Ljubljana", "London", "Los Angeles", "Ljubljana"].uniqueOrdered()
