SwiftHow to Match with Regex
Use Swift Regex for pattern matching.
Steps
- Paste the code into a Swift file or playground.
- Run it once to verify the output.
- Adjust the inputs to match your use case.
Copy and paste
import Foundation
let text = "Order #1234"
let regex = /#(d+)/
if let match = text.firstMatch(of: regex) {
print(match.1)
}Notes
- Keep functions small and focused for reuse.
- Prefer safe APIs like optionals and guards.
