如果你想获取嵌套数组的深度(Swift 的标准库没有技术上为您提供多维数组,仅锯齿状数组)——然后,如图所示本次问答,您可以使用“虚拟协议”和类型转换。
protocol _Array {
var nestingDepth: Int { get }
}
extension Array : _Array {
var nestingDepth: Int {
return 1 + ((first as? _Array)?.nestingDepth ?? 0)
}
}
let a = [1, 2, 3]
print(a.nestingDepth) // 1
let b = [[1], [2, 3], [4]]
print(b.nestingDepth) // 2
let c = [[[1], [2]], [[3]], [[4], [5]]]
print(c.nestingDepth) // 3
(I believe this approach would've still worked when you had originally posted the question)
在 Swift 3 中,这也可以在没有虚拟协议的情况下实现,而是通过转换为[Any]
。然而,正如链接的问答中所述,这是低效的,因为它需要遍历整个数组才能将每个元素装箱到存在容器中。
另请注意,此实现assumes您在同质嵌套数组上调用它。正如保罗指出的,它不会给出正确的答案[[[1], 2], 3]
.
如果需要考虑到这一点,您可以编写一个递归方法,该方法将迭代每个嵌套数组并返回嵌套的最小深度。
protocol _Array {
func _nestingDepth(minimumDepth: Int?, currentDepth: Int) -> Int
}
extension Array : _Array {
func _nestingDepth(minimumDepth: Int?, currentDepth: Int) -> Int {
// for an empty array, the minimum depth is the current depth, as we know
// that _nestingDepth is called where currentDepth <= minimumDepth.
guard !isEmpty else { return currentDepth }
var minimumDepth = minimumDepth
for element in self {
// if current depth has exceeded minimum depth, then return the minimum.
// this allows for the short-circuiting of the function.
if let minimumDepth = minimumDepth, currentDepth >= minimumDepth {
return minimumDepth
}
// if element isn't an array, then return the current depth as the new minimum,
// given that currentDepth < minimumDepth.
guard let element = element as? _Array else { return currentDepth }
// get the new minimum depth from the next nesting,
// and incrementing the current depth.
minimumDepth = element._nestingDepth(minimumDepth: minimumDepth,
currentDepth: currentDepth + 1)
}
// the force unwrap is safe, as we know array is non-empty, therefore minimumDepth
// has been assigned at least once.
return minimumDepth!
}
var nestingDepth: Int {
return _nestingDepth(minimumDepth: nil, currentDepth: 1)
}
}
let a = [1, 2, 3]
print(a.nestingDepth) // 1
let b = [[1], [2], [3]]
print(b.nestingDepth) // 2
let c = [[[1], [2]], [[3]], [[5], [6]]]
print(c.nestingDepth) // 3
let d: [Any] = [ [[1], [2], [[3]] ], [[4]], [5] ]
print(d.nestingDepth) // 2 (the minimum depth is at element [5])
