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

You can split string by : character and then convert results to Int:

let timeStringArray = time.componentsSeparatedByString(":")
if timeStringArray.count == 2 {
   hour = timeStringArray[0].toInt
   minutes = timeStringArray[1].toInt()
}
