Remove nth character from string

Question

I have seen many methods for removing the last character from a string. Is there however a way to remove any old character based on its index?

Answer 1

Swift 3.2

let str = "hello"
let position = 2
let subStr = str.prefix(upTo: str.index(str.startIndex, offsetBy: position)) + str.suffix(from: str.index(str.startIndex, offsetBy: (position + 1)))
print(subStr)

"helo"
