Using key-value programming (KVP) with Swift

Question

In Objective-C with Cocoa a lot of tasks can be accomplished without explicit loops by using Key-Value Programming (KVP). For example, I can find the largest number in an array

Answer 1

You can also use the reduce function of Array

let numbers = [505,4,33,12,506,21,1,0,88]
let biggest = numbers.reduce(Int.min,{max($0, $1)})
println(biggest) // prints 506

Good explanation here
