Check if array contains part of a string in Swift?

Question

I have an array containing a number of strings. I have used contains() (see below) to check if a certain string exists in the array however I would like to chec

Answer 1

I had the same problem recently, didn't like most of these answers, solved it like this:

let keywords = ["doctor", "hospital"] //your array

func keywordsContain(text: String) -> Bool { // text: your search text
    return keywords.contains { (key) -> Bool in
        key.lowercased().contains(text.lowercased())
    }
}

This will also correctly trigger searches like "doc", which many of the above answers do not and is best practice. contains() is more performant than first() != nil source: https://www.avanderlee.com/swift/performance-collections/
