In a Swift dictionary, we can search for an element that is either a key or value with the help of contains() function. The contains() function will return a boolean value which represents whether the specified element(key or value) is found or not. Syntax dict.contains{$0.key == “KeyName”} Here, dict is the dictionary. The contains() function returns a boolean value which represents the result. Here we pass a closure in the function which will check if the current key is equal to the specified key or not and then return the result accordingly. Algorithm Step 1 − Create a ... Read More

Sometimes a dictionary contains null values so to remove those null values Swift provides an in-built function named the filter() method. In the filter() method, we pass a closure which returns a boolean value indicating whether the key-value pair should be included in the resultant dictionary or not. Or we can say that if the second element(value) of a key-value pair is not nil, then it will be included in the resultant dictionary. Otherwise not. Syntax dict.filter{$0.1 != nil} Here, dict is the dictionary. The filter() function return key-value pairs which satisfy the given closure. The closure returns true ... Read More

This function checks if the dictionary contains duplicate values or not. If the dictionary contains duplicate values, then it will remove them from the resultant dictionary. Syntax dict.values.contains(val) Here, dict is the resultant dictionary in which we will store unique key-value pairs and the contains() function compares two values with each other.
