Convert Date String to Int Swift

Question

I am trying to convert the string:

let time = \"7:30\"

to integers:

let hour : Int = 7
let minutes : Int = 30

Answer 1

Answers by @alex_p and @mixel are correct, but it's also possible to do it with Swift split function:

let time = "7:30"
let components = time.characters.split { $0 == ":" } .map { (x) -> Int in return Int(String(x))! }

let hours = components[0]
let minutes = components[1]
