How to check if two sets are equal in Swift
Theodore Kelechukwu OnyejiakuOverview
We can check if two sets are equal in Swift by using the equality operator ==. Two sets are equal if both contain the same elements. If they are equal, the operator returns true. Otherwise, it returns false.
Syntax
set1 == set2
Syntax to check if two sets are equal in Swift
Parameters
set1: This is a set on the left-hand side of the operator. It is one of the two sets we want to compare.
set2: This is the set on the right-hand side of the operator. It is the other of the two sets that we want to compare.
Return value
The value returned is a boolean value. If the sets are equal, then a true is returned. Otherwise, a false is returned.
Code example
// create some sets let evenNumbers : Set = [10, 2, 6, 8, 4] let oddNumbers : Set = [11, 5, 7, 3, 9] let evenNumbers2 : Set = [2, 4, 6, 8, 10] let first_names : Set = ["john", "jane", "henry", "mark"] let last_names : Set = ["jane", "john", "henry", "mark"] // check if equal print(evenNumbers == oddNumbers) // false print(evenNumbers == evenNumbers2) // true print(first_names == last_names) // true
Comparing sets in Swift
Explanation
- Lines 2-6: We create some set instances and initialize them with some values.
- Lines 9-11: We compare the sets to find if they are equal by using the double equality operator. Then we print the results to the console.
