Default value for Enum in Swift

Question

I have an enum :

public enum PersonType:String {

 case Cool                       = \"cool\"
 case Nice                       = \"rude\"
 case          


        

Answer 1

Another approach that works in Swift 3 (maybe 2, don't know):

enum PersonType: String {
    case cool = "cool"
    case nice = "nice"
    case soLazy = "so-lazy"
    case other
}

let person = PersonType(rawValue: "funny") ?? .other

The person variable is of type PersonType.other in this case.

The downside to this is that you don't know the raw string value of the .other case.
