Removing duplicate elements from an array in Swift

Question

I might have an array that looks like the following:

[1, 4, 2, 2, 6, 24, 15, 2, 60, 15, 6]

Or, reall

Answer 1

The easiest way would be to use NSOrderedSet, that stores unique elements and preserves the elements order. Like:

func removeDuplicates(from items: [Int]) -> [Int] {
    let uniqueItems = NSOrderedSet(array: items)
    return (uniqueItems.array as? [Int]) ?? []
}

let arr = [1, 4, 2, 2, 6, 24, 15, 2, 60, 15, 6]
removeDuplicates(from: arr)
