I have this code of swift struct with getter and setter.
How that value of newValue
got inside this setter? I don't know how it was defined.
struct Program {
var allResults : [String] = []
var items: Int {
get {
return allResults.count
}
set {
let result = String(newValue * 100) // what's that newValue, how did it get there?
allResults.append(result)
}
}
It is called Shorthand Setter Declaration.
Cited from Swift 3 book:
If a computed property’s setter does not define a name for the new value to be set, a default name of newValue is used.
If you would like to have a better readable format, you could use this:
...
set (newItems) { //add your own variable named as you like
let result = String(newItems * 100)
allResults.append(result)
}
