使用不同的最终分隔符连接字符串数组

Question

一般情况下：如何加入一系列叮咬，使最后一个分隔符与其他分隔符不同？

具体来说：iOS Messages应用程序如何构建群组对话的默认名称，这是联系人姓名列表？

实施例

class User {
    var name: String

    init(name: String) {
        self.name = name
    }
}

let users = [
    User(name: "Matthew"),
    User(name: "Mark"),
    User(name: "Luke"),
    User(name: "John")
]

users.list(" & ") { $0.name } // => "Matthew, Mark, Luke & John"

Answer 1

使用问题中定义的类，您可以执行以下操作：

let names = users.map { $0.name }
let suffix = names.suffix(2)
let joined = (names.dropLast(suffix.count) + [suffix.joinWithSeparator(" & ")]).joinWithSeparator(", ")

print(joined)   // prints Matthew, Mark, Luke & John
