String是一個結構對象, 如Map、Filter和Reduce等針對結構對象的經典操作也能用到字符串上。比如常用的語法

// map
let abc: String = "abc"
_ = abc.map {
  print($0.description)
}
// filter
let filtered = abca.filter { $0 == "a" }
// reduce
let result = abc.reduce("1") { (result, c) -> String in
  return result + String(c)
}

// map
let abc: String = "abc"
_ = abc.map {
  print($0.description)
}
// filter
let filtered = abca.filter { $0 == "a" }
// reduce
let result = abc.reduce("1") { (result, c) -> String in
  return result + String(c)
}

if let found = s.firstMatch(%"searchString") { ... }
if let found = s.firstMatch(someRegex) { ... }

for m in s.allMatches((%"searchString"), case: .insensitive) { ... }
for m in s.allMatches(someRegex) { ... }

let items = s.split(separatedBy: ", ")
let tokens = s.split(separatedBy: CharacterSet.whitespace)
