Answer 1

This is what I've used (Swift 5)...

    extension Array where Element:Equatable
    {
        @discardableResult
        mutating func removeFirst(_ item:Any ) -> Any? {
            for index in 0.. Any? {
            var index = self.count-1
            while index >= 0 {
                if(item as? Element == self[index]) {
                    return self.remove(at: index)
                }
                index -= 1
            }
            return nil
        }
    }

    var arrContacts:[String] = ["A","B","D","C","B","D"]
    var contacts: [Any] = ["B","D"]
    print(arrContacts)
    var index = 1
    arrContacts.removeFirst(contacts[index])
    print(arrContacts)
    index = 0
    arrContacts.removeLast(contacts[index])
    print(arrContacts)

Results:

   ["A", "B", "D", "C", "B", "D"]
   ["A", "B", "C", "B", "D"]
   ["A", "B", "C", "D"]

Important: The array from which you remove items must contain Equatable elements (such as objects, strings, number, etc.)
