How can I check if an object in an NSArray is NSNull?

Question

I am getting an array with null value. Please check the structure of my array below:

    \"< null>\"
 )

In Swift (or bridging from Objective-C), it is possible to have NSNull and nil in an array of optionals. NSArrays can only contain objects and will never have nil, but may have NSNull. A Swift array of Any? types may contain nil, however.

let myArray: [Any?] = [nil, NSNull()] // [nil, {{NSObject}}], or [nil, ]

To check against NSNull, use is to check an object's type. This process is the same for Swift arrays and NSArray objects:

for obj in myArray {
    if obj is NSNull {
        // object is of type NSNull
    } else {
        // object is not of type NSNull
    }
}

You can also use an if let or guard to check if your object can be casted to NSNull:

guard let _ = obj as? NSNull else {
    // obj is not NSNull
    continue;
}

or

if let _ = obj as? NSNull {
    // obj is NSNull
}
