Is there a cleaner way to get the last two items of an array in Swift? In general, I try to avoid this approach since it\'s so easy to be off-by-one with the indexes. (Using
the last two items of an array in Swift
EDIT: first checks that myArray.count >= 2
let myArray2:Array? = myArray.count >= 2 ? [myArray[myArray.count-2], myArray[myArray.count-1]] : nil
Here it is wrapped in a function which takes the array and either returns an array containing the last two or else returns nil if the passed array does not contain at least two items.
func getLastTwo(myArray:[String]) -> [String]? {
return myArray.count >= 2 ? [myArray[myArray.count-2], myArray[myArray.count-1]] : nil
}
