Answer 1

func isObjectValid(someObject: Any?) -> Any? {
    if someObject is String {
        if let someObject = someObject as? String {
            return someObject
        }else {
            return ""
        }
    }else if someObject is Array {
        if let someObject = someObject as? Array {
            return someObject
        }else {
            return []
        }
    }else if someObject is Dictionary {
        if let someObject = someObject as? Dictionary {
            return someObject
        }else {
            return [:]
        }
    }else if someObject is Data {
        if let someObject = someObject as? Data {
            return someObject
        }else {
            return Data()
        }
    }else if someObject is NSNumber {
        if let someObject = someObject as? NSNumber{
            return someObject
        }else {
            return NSNumber.init(booleanLiteral: false)
        }
    }else if someObject is UIImage {
        if let someObject = someObject as? UIImage {
            return someObject
        }else {
            return UIImage()
        }
    }
    else {
        return "InValid Object"
    }
}

This function checks any kind of object and return's default value of the kind of object, if object is invalid.
