使用Set或NSOrderedSet删除重复项，然后转换回数组:

let uniqueUnordered = Array(Set(array))
let uniqueOrdered = Array(NSOrderedSet(array: array))

像函数式程序员一样思考:)

要根据元素是否已经出现来筛选列表，需要索引。可以使用enumeration获取索引，并使用map返回值列表。

let unique = myArray
    .enumerated()
    .filter{ myArray.firstIndex(of: $0.1) == $0.0 }
    .map{ $0.1 }

这保证了秩序。如果你不介意顺序，那么Array(Set(myArray))的现有答案更简单，可能更有效。

更新:一些关于效率和正确性的注意事项

一些人对效率进行了评论。我肯定是先写正确而简单的代码，然后再找出瓶颈，尽管我知道这是否比Array(Set(Array))更清楚是有争议的。

这个方法比Array(Set(Array))慢很多。正如评论中所指出的，它确实保持了顺序，并对非Hashable的元素起作用。

然而，@Alain T的方法也保持了秩序，也快得多。所以除非你的元素类型是不可哈希的，或者你只是需要一个快速的一行，那么我建议采用他们的解决方案。

以下是MacBook Pro(2014)在Xcode 11.3.1 (Swift 5.1)发布模式下的一些测试。

profiler函数和两个比较方法:

func printTimeElapsed(title:String, operation:()->()) {
    var totalTime = 0.0
    for _ in (0..<1000) {
        let startTime = CFAbsoluteTimeGetCurrent()
        operation()
        let timeElapsed = CFAbsoluteTimeGetCurrent() - startTime
        totalTime += timeElapsed
    }
    let meanTime = totalTime / 1000
    print("Mean time for \(title): \(meanTime) s")
}

func method1<T: Hashable>(_ array: Array<T>) -> Array<T> {
    return Array(Set(array))
}

func method2<T: Equatable>(_ array: Array<T>) -> Array<T>{
    return array
    .enumerated()
    .filter{ array.firstIndex(of: $0.1) == $0.0 }
    .map{ $0.1 }
}

// Alain T.'s answer (adapted)
func method3<T: Hashable>(_ array: Array<T>) -> Array<T> {
    var uniqueKeys = Set<T>()
    return array.filter{uniqueKeys.insert($0).inserted}
}

以及少量的测试输入:

func randomString(_ length: Int) -> String {
  let letters = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789"
  return String((0..<length).map{ _ in letters.randomElement()! })
}

let shortIntList = (0..<100).map{_ in Int.random(in: 0..<100) }
let longIntList = (0..<10000).map{_ in Int.random(in: 0..<10000) }
let longIntListManyRepetitions = (0..<10000).map{_ in Int.random(in: 0..<100) }
let longStringList = (0..<10000).map{_ in randomString(1000)}
let longMegaStringList = (0..<10000).map{_ in randomString(10000)}

给出输出:

Mean time for method1 on shortIntList: 2.7358531951904296e-06 s
Mean time for method2 on shortIntList: 4.910230636596679e-06 s

Mean time for method3 on longMegaStringList: 0.11214958941936493 s

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
    }
}

斯威夫特5

extension Sequence where Element: Hashable {
    func unique() -> [Element] {
        NSOrderedSet(array: self as! [Any]).array as! [Element]
    }
}

斯威夫特2

用uniq函数回答:

func uniq<S: SequenceType, E: Hashable where E==S.Generator.Element>(source: S) -> [E] {
    var seen: [E:Bool] = [:]
    return source.filter({ (v) -> Bool in
        return seen.updateValue(true, forKey: v) == nil
    })
}

use:

var test = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,9,9,9,9,9]
print(uniq(test)) //1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

受https://www.swiftbysundell.com/posts/the-power-of-key-paths-in-swift的启发，我们可以声明一个更强大的工具，它能够过滤任何keyPath上的唯一性。感谢Alexander关于复杂性的各种答案的评论，下面的解决方案应该是最优的。

Non-mutating解决方案

我们扩展了一个函数，它可以过滤任意keyPath上的唯一性:

extension RangeReplaceableCollection {
    /// Returns a collection containing, in order, the first instances of
    /// elements of the sequence that compare equally for the keyPath.
    func unique<T: Hashable>(for keyPath: KeyPath<Element, T>) -> Self {
        var unique = Set<T>()
        return filter { unique.insert($0[keyPath: keyPath]).inserted }
    }
}

注意:在你的对象不符合RangeReplaceableCollection，但符合Sequence的情况下，你可以有这个额外的扩展，但返回类型将始终是一个数组:

extension Sequence {
    /// Returns an array containing, in order, the first instances of
    /// elements of the sequence that compare equally for the keyPath.
    func unique<T: Hashable>(for keyPath: KeyPath<Element, T>) -> [Element] {
        var unique = Set<T>()
        return filter { unique.insert($0[keyPath: keyPath]).inserted }
    }
}

使用

如果我们想要元素本身的唯一性，如问题中所示，我们使用keyPath \.self:

let a = [1, 4, 2, 2, 6, 24, 15, 2, 60, 15, 6]
let b = a.unique(for: \.self)
/* b is [1, 4, 2, 6, 24, 15, 60] */

如果我们想要其他东西的唯一性(比如对象集合的id)，那么我们使用我们选择的keyPath:

let a = [CGPoint(x: 1, y: 1), CGPoint(x: 2, y: 1), CGPoint(x: 1, y: 2)]
let b = a.unique(for: \.y)
/* b is [{x 1 y 1}, {x 1 y 2}] */

变异的解决方案

我们扩展了一个变异函数，它能够过滤任意keyPath上的唯一性:

extension RangeReplaceableCollection {
    /// Keeps only, in order, the first instances of
    /// elements of the collection that compare equally for the keyPath.
    mutating func uniqueInPlace<T: Hashable>(for keyPath: KeyPath<Element, T>) {
        var unique = Set<T>()
        removeAll { !unique.insert($0[keyPath: keyPath]).inserted }
    }
}

使用

如果我们想要元素本身的唯一性，如问题中所示，我们使用keyPath \.self:

var a = [1, 4, 2, 2, 6, 24, 15, 2, 60, 15, 6]
a.uniqueInPlace(for: \.self)
/* a is [1, 4, 2, 6, 24, 15, 60] */

如果我们想要其他东西的唯一性(比如对象集合的id)，那么我们使用我们选择的keyPath:

var a = [CGPoint(x: 1, y: 1), CGPoint(x: 2, y: 1), CGPoint(x: 1, y: 2)]
a.uniqueInPlace(for: \.y)
/* a is [{x 1 y 1}, {x 1 y 2}] */
