Swift Exercises

This is a collection of familiarization exercises in Swift. They'll suffer from ignorance of writing idiomatic code. My goal is to iterate on these as fluency develops and leave them up for the brave.

Have you seen this yet:

result = x == y ? true : false
Which is the same as:

if x == y {
  result = true
} else {
  result = false
}

So FizzBuzz can also be written as such using Swift:

func FizzBuzz2() {
    func applyLabel(number: Int) -> String {
        var returnString: String = ""
        returnString += number % 3 == 0 ? "Fizz" : ""
        returnString += number % 5 == 0 ? "Buzz" : ""
        returnString = returnString == "" ? "\(number)" : returnString
        return returnString
    }
    for value in 1...100 {
        println(applyLabel(value))
    }
}

FizzBuzz2()

^ this looks way too close to C to keep a clear conscience ^

Now here's what I was talking about:

PATTERN MATCHING

func fizzBuzz(number: Int) -> String {
    switch (number % 3, number % 5) {
    case (0, 0):
        // number divides by both 3 and 5
        return "FizzBuzz!"
    case (0, _):
        // number divides by 3
        return "Fizz!"
    case (_, 0):
        // number divides by 5
        return "Buzz!"
    case (_, _):
        // number does not divide by either 3 or 5
        return "\(number)"
    }
}

This feels more in keeping with the language as I've observed it so far

// Is that ok?
func number(){
for i in 1...100{
if i % 3 == 0 && i % 5 == 0{
print("Divided by both 3 & 5")
continue
}
else if i % 3 == 0{
print("Divided by 3")
continue
}
else if i % 5 == 0{
print("Divided by 5")
continue
}

    print(i)
}}

number()
