How could I replace nth character of a String
with another one?
func replace(myString:String, index:Int, newCharac:Character) -> String {
// Write correct code here
return modifiedString
}
For example, replace("House", 2, "r")
should be equal to "Horse"
.
Please see NateCook answer for more details
func replace(myString: String, _ index: Int, _ newChar: Character) -> String {
var chars = Array(myString.characters) // gets an array of characters
chars[index] = newChar
let modifiedString = String(chars)
return modifiedString
}
For Swift 5
func replace(myString: String, _ index: Int, _ newChar: Character) -> String {
var chars = Array(myString) // gets an array of characters
chars[index] = newChar
let modifiedString = String(chars)
return modifiedString
}
replace("House", 2, "r")
This is no longer valid and deprecated.
You can always use swift String
with NSString
.So you can call NSString
function on swift String
.
By old stringByReplacingCharactersInRange:
you can do like this
var st :String = "House"
let abc = st.bridgeToObjectiveC().stringByReplacingCharactersInRange(NSMakeRange(2,1), withString:"r") //Will give Horse
