After covering last week how to code a Queue in Swift, it sounds natural to move on to the Stack, another really handy data structure which also find his place in iOS development. Let’s see why. Concept Similar to a Queue, a Stack execute operation in a linear order, however the ordered is reversed to […]
Recently revisiting computer science fundamentals, I was interested to see how specific data structure applies to iOS development, starting this week one of most common data structure: the queue. My daily usage of data structure is often limited to native one available in iOS development: arrays, sets, dictionaries. However, if there is a data structure […]
I recorded an episode of @learnswift_fm with Steven Sherry a couple weeks back. We had a great chat about contracting, computing history, philosophy, Smalltalk, and even a little bit about Swift. I think you’ll really like it, and recommend giving it a listen. The Learn Swift Podcast: #28: Joe Fabisevich Original recording Source link
I have a love/hate relationship with regular expressions. I love them because they’re great for examining text to find useful information and, often, to change the text in some way. I hate them because once you get beyond basic matching, they descend into bizarre write-only code that gives me flashbacks to my days writing Perl. […]

There’s a conversation happening in the iOS community at the moment, static vs. dynamic programming. On one side we have many people […]
A large part of the Swift Standard Library is concerned with Generators, Sequences and Collections and functions that operate on them, so it’s pretty important to have a good understanding of them. I was going to write a blog post about how to create and use Swift generators and sequences. But while I was trying […]
