How to Use Trailing Closures

Write cleaner call sites with trailing closure syntax.

Steps

  1. Paste the code into a Swift file or playground.
  2. Run it once to verify the output.
  3. Adjust the inputs to match your use case.

Copy and paste

import Foundation

func perform(task: () -> Void) {
    task()
}

perform {
    print("Running")
}

Notes

  • Keep functions small and focused for reuse.
  • Prefer safe APIs like optionals and guards.
