How do I load a text file line by line into an array with swift?

Answer 1

If you are in Swift 2.0, you should use:

let path = NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource(fileName, ofType: nil)
if path == nil {
  return nil
}

var fileContents: String? = nil
do {
  fileContents = try String(contentsOfFile: path!, encoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding)
} catch _ as NSError {
  return nil
}
