In case if you are splitting the String it creates two substrings and not two Strings . This below method will check for Any and convert it t0 NSNumber its easy to convert a NSNumber to Int, Float what ever data type you need.

Actual Code

//Convert Any To Number Object Removing Optional Key Word.
public func getNumber(number: Any) -> NSNumber{
 guard let statusNumber:NSNumber = number as? NSNumber  else {
    guard let statString:String = number as? String else {
        guard let statSubStr : Substring = number as? Substring else {
            return 0
        }
        if let myInteger = Int(statSubStr) {
            return NSNumber(value:myInteger)
        }
        else{
            return 0
        }
    }

    if let myInteger = Int(statString) {
        return NSNumber(value:myInteger)
    }
    else if let myFloat = Float(statString) {
        return NSNumber(value:myFloat)
    }else {
        return 0
    }
}
return statusNumber }
