How do I add a tuple to a Swift Array?

Question

I\'m trying to add a tuple (e.g., 2-item tuple) to an array.

var myStringArray: (String,Int)[]? = nil
myStringArray += (\"One\", 1)

Since this is still the top answer on google for adding tuples to an array, its worth noting that things have changed slightly in the latest release. namely:

when declaring/instantiating arrays; the type is now nested within the braces:

var stuff:[(name: String, value: Int)] = []

the compound assignment operator, +=, is now used for concatenating arrays; if adding a single item, it needs to be nested in an array:

stuff += [(name: "test 1", value: 1)]

it also worth noting that when using append() on an array containing named tuples, you can provide each property of the tuple you're adding as an argument to append():

stuff.append((name: "test 2", value: 2))
