Lesson 13: Arrays
Arrays Store several values in one variable.
1let fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
2print(fruits)
Terminal
$ swift main.swift
["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
Every line, explained
let fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"]
An array stores several values in one variable. The values go between square brackets, separated by commas.
print(fruits)
print(...) shows whatever is inside its round brackets in the terminal, then moves to a new line. All lowercase, both brackets needed, and no semicolon at the end; Swift doesn't use them. Printing an array shows all its items between square brackets, each String in its quotes.
