We can use set operations in Swift programming language to create new sets based on data from two different sets! This comes in handy when working with multiple data sets. Let’s discuss intersection method of set in Swift.
To find matching values in two different sets, we can use the .intersection()
method:
var SetIntersection = SetA.intersection(SetB)
.intersection()
to an already existing set.()
.Set
keyword.
Assume we have the following two sets of names of countries in Southern and Eastern Europe:
var SouthEurope: Set = ["Albania", "Bosnia", "Croatia", "Italy", "Portugal"];
var EastEurope: Set = ["Belarus", "Hungary", "Croatia", "Albania", "Poland"];
We can use .intersection()
to create a set called AllEurope
that contains countries from both European Regions:
var AllEurope = SouthEurope.intersection(EastEurope);
If we use print()
to output AllEurope
, we get the following result:
["Croatia", "Albania"]
