How can I limit the number of decimal points in a UITextField?

Question

I have a UITextField that when clicked brings up a number pad with a decimal point in the bottom left. I am trying to limit the field so that a user can only place 1 decimal

Swift 4

The efficient and easy way to avoid multiple decimal points (. or ,) in UITextField:

    func textField(_ textField: UITextField, shouldChangeCharactersIn range: NSRange, replacementString string: String) -> Bool {
    if(string == "," || string == "." ){

        if ((textField.text?.contains(","))! || (textField.text?.contains("."))!){
            return false
        }
    }
    return true
}
