Fraction Machine with Tuples Playground. Fraction Machine with Arrays Playground. Fraction Machine Playground. Swift Blog. Oct 7, 2015 Literals in Playgrounds New in Xcode 7.1 is the ability to embed file, image, and color literals into your playground’s code.
Literals are the actual values of your data represented in their native format, directly within the Xcode editor. For instance, there’s no need to type “myImage.jpg” in the editor – just drag your image from the Finder and the actual image will appear in-line with your code. Instead of showing RGB values to indicate color, the playground will render a color swatch.
In addition to looking cool, literals can also make editing resources much faster. Resources are copied into your playground’s resources directory if needed, so everything your playground requires is included within the document. Newest 'swift' Questions. Achieving Nerdvana: Learning Swift for iOS at Big Nerd Ranch. With its origins at NeXT, Big Nerd Ranch is one of the more respected iOS app development companies in the world.
At a recent coding retreat put on by BNR, I survived seven days of the most intensive programming instruction of my life, and lived to write about it. After Apple announced Swift 2.0 at WWDC this past June, I realized that it had acquired a lot more support and had more or less stabilized as a language. I needed to learn it fast if I wanted to teach iOS with it in Sept., so I signed up for a week of learning iOS with Swift at Big Nerd Ranch's West Coast location at Asilomar Conference Grounds in Pacific Grove, Calif. The Saturday I arrived, I met our instructor, Scott Ritchie, a former NeXT and Apple employee and Cocoa/Cocoa Touch wizard that also does corporate training for companies like Facebook and Google. 58 Swift Bootcamp Classes - Course Report. Swift - Overview. Interactive Playgrounds Playgrounds make writing Swift code incredibly simple and fun.
Type a line of code and the result appears immediately. You can then Quick Look the result from the side of your code, or pin that result directly below. The result view can display graphics, lists of results, or graphs of a value over time. You can open the Timeline Assistant to watch a complex view evolve and animate, great for experimenting with new UI code, or to play an animated SpriteKit scene as you code it. And new in Xcode 7, playgrounds can contain comments that use rich text with bold, italic, and bullet lists in addition to embedded images and links. Share curriculum to teach programming with beautiful text and interactive code. Read-Eval-Print-Loop (REPL). Designed for Safety Swift eliminates entire classes of unsafe code.

Swift (programming language) Swift was introduced at Apple's 2014 Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC),[10] It underwent an upgrade to version 1.2 during 2014, and a more major upgrade to Swift 2 at WWDC 2015.
Initially a proprietary language, it was announced that Swift 2 would become open source later that year, supporting iOS, OS X, and Linux.[2] The Swift Programming Language, a free 500-page manual, was also released at WWDC, and is available on the iBooks Store.[12] Swift reached the 1.0 milestone on September 9, 2014, with the "Gold Master" of Xcode 6.0 for iOS.[13] Swift 1.1 was released on October 22, 2014, alongside the launch of Xcode 6.1.[14] Swift 1.2 was released on April 8, 2015, in conjunction with Xcode 6.3.[15] Swift 2.0 was announced at WWDC 2015. Swift is an alternative for the Objective-C language that employs contemporary programming language theory concepts and strives to present a simpler syntax.
During its introduction, it was described simply as "Objective-C without the C".[16][17] The ? 7 Best Free Swift Tutorials for Apple's Newest Language. Swift 2 Tutorial: A Quick Start.

Swift: a developer's guide to Apple's new programming language. Apple took developers by surprise on Tuesday by announcing Swift, a new programming language for developing apps across Apple’s platforms.
Until now, most apps on Apple devices have been built using Objective-C, the language almost exclusively adopted by NeXT corporation years ago and subsequently by Apple. Objective-C now seems to be on its way out, superseded by a language that looks to be "safe, modern and powerful", according to Apple’s engineering chief, Craig Federighi. But how powerful is this new language, and what difference will it make to the global community of developers building for Apple products.
What is Swift? Swift is Apple’s new programming language, which has been in development for the past four years and which looks to replace Objective-C as the main language for app development on Apple’s platforms, OSX and iOS. Although it’s a major departure, Apple have taken a lot of trouble to make the transition to Swift as painless as possible. But I’m good at Objective-C. Swift. Ray Wenderlich (@rwenderlich)
