I have a string which is "Optional("5")"
. I need to remove the ""
surrounding the 5
. I have removed the Optional
by doing:
text2 = text2.stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString("Optional(", withString: "", options: NSStringCompareOptions.LiteralSearch, range: nil)
I am having difficulties removing the "
characters as they designate the end of a string in the code.
Swift uses backslash to escape double quotes. Here is the list of escaped special characters in Swift:
\0
(null character)\\
(backslash)\t
(horizontal tab)\n
(line feed)\r
(carriage return)\"
(double quote)\'
(single quote)
This should work:
text2 = text2.replacingOccurrences(of: "\\", with: "", options: NSString.CompareOptions.literal, range: nil)
