有一种聪明的方法，尽管令人沮丧，但它说明了两种不同类型的枚举之间的区别。

试试这个:

    func makeDeck() -> Card[] {
      var deck: Card[] = []
      var suits: Suit[] = [.Hearts, .Diamonds, .Clubs, .Spades]
      for i in 1...13 {
        for suit in suits {
          deck += Card(rank: Rank.fromRaw(i)!, suit: suit)
        }
      }
      return deck
    }

交易是，一个由数字(原始值)支持的枚举是隐式显式有序的，而一个没有数字支持的枚举是显式隐式无序的。

例如，当我们给枚举值数字时，语言足够狡猾，可以找出数字的顺序。 另一方面，如果我们不给它任何顺序，当我们尝试迭代这些值时，语言就会举起双手说:“是的，但你想先执行哪个??”

其他可以做到这一点(迭代无序枚举)的语言可能是相同的语言，其中所有内容实际上都是一个地图或字典，你可以迭代地图的键，无论是否有任何逻辑顺序。

诀窍是给它提供一些显式排序的东西，在这个例子中，suit的实例在数组中按照我们想要的顺序。一旦你这么说，霉霉就会说“你为什么不一开始就这么说呢?”

另一个简写技巧是在fromRaw函数上使用强制操作符。这说明了关于枚举的另一个“陷阱”，即可能传入的值的范围通常大于枚举的范围。例如，如果我们说Rank.fromRaw(60)，就不会返回值，所以我们使用了语言的可选特性，在我们开始使用可选特性的地方，很快就会出现强制。(或者交替if let结构，这对我来说仍然有点奇怪)

我添加了函数count()，并迭代值:

public enum MetricType: Int {
    case mvps = 0
    case allNBA = 1
    case championshipRings = 2
    case finalAppearances = 3
    case gamesPlayed = 4
    case ppg = 5

    static func count() -> Int {
        return (ppg.rawValue) + 1
    }

    static var allValues: [MetricType] {
        var array: [MetricType] = Array()
        var item : MetricType = MetricType.mvps
        while item.rawValue < MetricType.count() {
            array.append(item)
            item = MetricType(rawValue: (item.rawValue + 1))!
        }
    return array
    }
}

其他的解决方法都是可行的，但它们都假设了可能的等级和花色的数量，或者第一和最后的等级是什么。的确，在可预见的未来，一副纸牌的布局可能不会有太大变化。然而，一般来说，编写尽可能少假设的代码会更简洁。我的解决方案:

我已经在Suit枚举中添加了一个原始类型，所以我可以使用Suit(rawValue:)来访问Suit案例:

enum Suit: Int {
    case Spades = 1
    case Hearts, Diamonds, Clubs
    func simpleDescription() -> String {
        switch self {
            case .Spades:
                return "spades"
            case .Hearts:
                return "hearts"
            case .Diamonds:
                return "diamonds"
            case .Clubs:
                return "clubs"
        }
    }
    func color() -> String {
        switch self {
        case .Spades:
            return "black"
        case .Clubs:
            return "black"
        case .Diamonds:
            return "red"
        case .Hearts:
            return "red"
        }
    }
}

enum Rank: Int {
    case Ace = 1
    case Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten
    case Jack, Queen, King
    func simpleDescription() -> String {
        switch self {
            case .Ace:
                return "ace"
            case .Jack:
                return "jack"
            case .Queen:
                return "queen"
            case .King:
                return "king"
            default:
                return String(self.rawValue)
        }
    }
}

在Card的createDeck()方法实现的下面。init(rawValue:)是一个可失败的初始化式，返回一个可选值。通过在两个while语句中展开并检查它的值，不需要假设Rank或Suit情况的数量:

struct Card {
    var rank: Rank
    var suit: Suit
    func simpleDescription() -> String {
        return "The \(rank.simpleDescription()) of \(suit.simpleDescription())"
    }
    func createDeck() -> [Card] {
        var n = 1
        var deck = [Card]()
        while let rank = Rank(rawValue: n) {
            var m = 1
            while let suit = Suit(rawValue: m) {
                deck.append(Card(rank: rank, suit: suit))
                m += 1
            }
            n += 1
        }
        return deck
    }
}

下面是如何调用createDeck方法:

let card = Card(rank: Rank.Ace, suit: Suit.Clubs)
let deck = card.createDeck()

下面是我用来迭代枚举和从一个枚举提供多个值类型的方法

enum IterateEnum: Int {
    case Zero
    case One
    case Two
    case Three
    case Four
    case Five
    case Six
    case Seven

    //tuple allows multiple values to be derived from the enum case, and
    //since it is using a switch with no default, if a new case is added,
    //a compiler error will be returned if it doesn't have a value tuple set
    var value: (french: String, spanish: String, japanese: String) {
        switch self {
        case .Zero: return (french: "zéro", spanish: "cero", japanese: "nuru")
        case .One: return (french: "un", spanish: "uno", japanese: "ichi")
        case .Two: return (french: "deux", spanish: "dos", japanese: "ni")
        case .Three: return (french: "trois", spanish: "tres", japanese: "san")
        case .Four: return (french: "quatre", spanish: "cuatro", japanese: "shi")
        case .Five: return (french: "cinq", spanish: "cinco", japanese: "go")
        case .Six: return (french: "six", spanish: "seis", japanese: "roku")
        case .Seven: return (french: "sept", spanish: "siete", japanese: "shichi")
        }
    }

    //Used to iterate enum or otherwise access enum case by index order.
    //Iterate by looping until it returns nil
    static func item(index: Int) -> IterateEnum? {
        return IterateEnum.init(rawValue: index)
    }

    static func numberFromSpanish(number: String) -> IterateEnum? {
        return findItem { $0.value.spanish == number }
    }

    //use block to test value property to retrieve the enum case        
    static func findItem(predicate: ((_: IterateEnum) -> Bool)) -> IterateEnum? {

        var enumIndex: Int = -1
        var enumCase: IterateEnum?

        //Iterate until item returns nil
        repeat {
            enumIndex += 1
            enumCase = IterateEnum.item(index: enumIndex)

            if let eCase = enumCase {

                if predicate(eCase) {
                    return eCase
                }
            }
        } while enumCase != nil
        return nil
    }
}

var enumIndex: Int = -1
var enumCase: IterateEnum?

// Iterate until item returns nil
repeat {
    enumIndex += 1
    enumCase = IterateEnum.item(index: enumIndex)
    if let eCase = enumCase {
        print("The number \(eCase) in french: \(eCase.value.french), spanish: \(eCase.value.spanish), japanese: \(eCase.value.japanese)")
    }
} while enumCase != nil

print("Total of \(enumIndex) cases")

let number = IterateEnum.numberFromSpanish(number: "siete")

print("siete in japanese: \((number?.value.japanese ?? "Unknown"))")

输出如下:

法语中的数字Zero: zéro，西班牙语中的数字cero，日语中的数字nuru 数字一在法语中是un，西班牙语中是uno，日语中是ichi 法语中的数字2是deux，西班牙语中的数字2是dos，日语中的数字2是ni 法语中的“三”是“trois”，西班牙语中的“tres”，日语中的“san” 法语中的“四”是quatre，西班牙语中的“四”是cuatro，日语中的“四”是shi 数字五在法语中是cinq，西班牙语中是cinco，日语中是go 数字6在法语中是Six，西班牙语是seis，日语是roku 法语中的数字“七”是“sept”，西班牙语中的“siete”，日语中的“shichi”

共8例

Siete在日语中的意思是:shichi

更新

我最近创建了一个协议来处理枚举。该协议需要一个Int原始值的enum:

protocol EnumIteration {

    //Used to iterate enum or otherwise access enum case by index order. Iterate by looping until it returns nil

    static func item(index:Int) -> Self?
    static func iterate(item:((index:Int, enumCase:Self)->()), completion:(()->())?) {
    static func findItem(predicate:((enumCase:Self)->Bool)) -> Self?
    static func count() -> Int
}

extension EnumIteration where Self: RawRepresentable, Self.RawValue == Int {

    //Used to iterate enum or otherwise access enum case by index order. Iterate by looping until it returns nil
    static func item(index:Int) -> Self? {
        return Self.init(rawValue: index)
    }

    static func iterate(item:((index:Int, enumCase:Self)->()), completion:(()->())?) {

        var enumIndex:Int = -1
        var enumCase:Self?

        //Iterate until item returns nil
        repeat {
            enumIndex += 1
            enumCase = Self.item(enumIndex)

            if let eCase = enumCase {
                item(index: enumIndex, enumCase: eCase)
            }
        } while enumCase != nil
        completion?()
    }

    static func findItem(predicate:((enumCase:Self)->Bool)) -> Self? {

        var enumIndex:Int = -1
        var enumCase:Self?

        //Iterate until item returns nil
        repeat {
            enumIndex += 1
            enumCase = Self.item(enumIndex)

            if let eCase = enumCase {

                if predicate(enumCase:eCase) {
                    return eCase
                }
            }
        } while enumCase != nil
        return nil
    }

    static func count() -> Int {
        var enumIndex:Int = -1
        var enumCase:Self?

        //Iterate until item returns nil
        repeat {
            enumIndex += 1
            enumCase = Self.item(enumIndex)
        } while enumCase != nil

        //last enumIndex (when enumCase == nil) is equal to the enum count
        return enumIndex
    }
}

(改进Karthik Kumar的回答)

这个解决方案是使用编译器来保证你不会错过一个case。

enum Suit: String {
    case spades = "♠"
    case hearts = "♥"
    case diamonds = "♦"
    case clubs = "♣"

    static var enumerate: [Suit] {
        switch Suit.spades {
        // make sure the two lines are identical ^_^
        case        .spades, .hearts, .diamonds, .clubs:
            return [.spades, .hearts, .diamonds, .clubs]
        }
    }
}

另一个解决方案:

enum Suit: String {
    case spades = "♠"
    case hearts = "♥"
    case diamonds = "♦"
    case clubs = "♣"

    static var count: Int {
        return 4   
    }

    init(index: Int) {
        switch index {
            case 0: self = .spades
            case 1: self = .hearts
            case 2: self = .diamonds
            default: self = .clubs
        }
    }
}

for i in 0..<Suit.count {
    print(Suit(index: i).rawValue)
}
