How to print a string from plist without “Optional”?

Question

I load a value from a dictionary in a plist but when I print it to the console, it prints: Optional(Monday Title) rather than just \"Monday Title\".

How can I get ri

Answer 1

With some try, I think this way is better.

(variableName ?? "default value")!

Use ?? for default value and then use ! for unwrap optional variable.

Here is example,

var a:String? = nil
var b:String? = "Hello"

print("varA = \( (a ?? "variable A is nil.")! )")
print("varB = \( (b ?? "variable B is nil.")! )")

It will print

varA = variable A is nil.
varB = Hello
