HMAC SHA 256 returns different value from javascript - swift

I need to generate the same hash value as the site below.
https://cryptii.com/pipes/hmac
If the key is aaaa and the message is a
The expected hash value is e29f14beeb21a8ee1d1c3b8c2be4cf440584da4d46aff5bacb2ae9aa7deb3271.

Swift RSA Encryption Public Key to Java Server is failing

I am trying to create public base64 key from RSA Private key using Security framework. Here is snippet.
let tag = "com.example.keys.mykey"
public extension SecKey {
static func generateBase64Encoded2048BitRSAKey() throws -> (private: String, public: String) {
let type = kSecAttrKeyTypeRSA
let attributes: [String: Any] =
[kSecAttrKeyType as String: type,
kSecAttrKeySizeInBits as String: 2048
]
var error: Unmanaged<CFError>?
guard let key = SecKeyCreateRandomKey(attributes as CFDictionary, &error),
let data = SecKeyCopyExternalRepresentation(key, &error) as Data?,
let publicKey = SecKeyCopyPublicKey(key),
let publicKeyData = SecKeyCopyExternalRepresentation(publicKey, &error) as Data? else {
throw error!.takeRetainedValue() as Error
}
return (private: data.base64EncodedString(), public: publicKeyData.base64EncodedString())
}
}
do {
let (pvtKey, pubKey) = try SecKey.generateBase64Encoded2048BitRSAKey()
print(pubKey)
} catch let error {
print(error)
}
This is the output

But this public key is not getting accepted by our Java server. It is throwing exception for the same.
Here is java snippet

But the online PEM parser website - https://8gwifi.org/PemParserFunctions.jsp is accepting this public key, which is using bouncycastle library in the background to validate this base64 encoded public key.
The exception is thrown because the ASN.1 DER encoding of an RSA public key generated on iOS is represented with the RSAPublicKey type as defined by PKCS#1, while Java (and many other languages and tools) expect the DER encoding to be represented with the SubjectPublicKeyInfo type as defined by X.509. There are of course two sides where this problem can be solved. And if you choose to convert the DER encoding of the RSA public key at the iOS side, you could use this project I recently published on GitHub. The structure you may be interested in is RSAPublicKeyExporter, which uses the SimpleASN1Writer for converting the DER encoding. The code snippet below shows how to use it:
import RSAPublicKeyExporter
let publicKeyData = ... // Get external representation of RSA public key some how
let x509EncodedKeyData = RSAPublicKeyExporter().toSubjectPublicKeyInfo(publicKeyData)
The answer I posted here contains some information that may be useful in case the exported key is fetched from the keychain.
Thanks guys. Due to some issues with bouncycastle library, we did not used it in backend service. So in iOS, we are including ASN1 header.
struct ASN1 {
let type: UInt8
let length: Int
let data: Data
init?(type: UInt8, arbitraryData data: Data) {
guard data.count > 4 else {

return ASN1(type: type, arbitraryData: result!)

}
static func wrap(type: UInt8, followingData: Data) -> Data {
var adjustedFollowingData = followingData
if type == 0x03 {
adjustedFollowingData = Data([0]) + followingData // add prefix 0
}
let lengthOfAdjustedFollowingData = adjustedFollowingData.count
let first: UInt8 = type
var bytes = [UInt8]()
if lengthOfAdjustedFollowingData <= 0x80 {
let second: UInt8 = UInt8(lengthOfAdjustedFollowingData)

} else if lengthOfAdjustedFollowingData > 0x80 && lengthOfAdjustedFollowingData <= 0xFF {
let second: UInt8 = UInt8(0x81)
let third: UInt8 = UInt8(lengthOfAdjustedFollowingData)
bytes = [first, second, third]

let second: UInt8 = UInt8(0x82)
let third: UInt8 = UInt8(lengthOfAdjustedFollowingData >> 8)

var bytes = [UInt8]()
bytes = [0x06, 0x09, 0x2A, 0x86, 0x48, 0x86, 0xF7, 0x0D, 0x01, 0x01, 0x01, 0x05, 0x00]
return Data(bytes)
}
}
Then called this during generating public key of RSA in swift.
class func RSAPublicKeyBitsFromKey(_ secKey:SecKey) -> Data? {
var queryPublicKey:[String:AnyObject] = [:]
queryPublicKey[kSecClass as String] = kSecClassKey as NSString
queryPublicKey[kSecAttrKeyType as String] = kSecAttrKeyTypeRSA as NSString
if let publicKeyData = SwiftCrypto.publicKeyInData(queryPublicKey, secKey: secKey) {
let bitstringSequence = ASN1.wrap(type: 0x03, followingData: publicKeyData)
let oidData = ASN1.rsaOID()
let oidSequence = ASN1.wrap(type: 0x30, followingData: oidData)
let X509Sequence = ASN1.wrap(type: 0x30, followingData: oidSequence + bitstringSequence)
return X509Sequence
}
return nil
}
So, in this way, I had fixed this issue.

How to parse Hex with String, Float

I have binary files which containing names of place and coordinates ( latitude, longitude ), whenever I parse it to String using encoding .ascii it won't parse it well. I assume that parsing from Float values (coordinates) failing.
Reading InputStream
extension Data {
init(reading input: InputStream) {
self.init()
input.open()
let bufferSize = 1024
let buffer = UnsafeMutablePointer<UInt8>.allocate(capacity: bufferSize)
while input.hasBytesAvailable {
let read = input.read(buffer, maxLength: bufferSize)
self.append(buffer, count: read)
}
buffer.deallocate()
input.close()
}
}
File to parse
let filepath = Bundle.main.path(forResource: "MN", ofType: "dat")
let data = Data.init(reading: InputStream(fileAtPath: filepath)!)
let parsedData = String.init(data: data, encoding: .ascii)
Any ideas how could I parse it in correct way ?
For example Java ObjectInputStream have methods called:
inputStreamObj.readUTF()
inputStreamObj.readFloat()
Java
As I wrote in the comment, you need to read the spec Object Serialization Stream Protocol.
So, first 4 bytes represents STREAM_MAGIC, STREAM_VERSION, expected to be always the same value. And 5 byte sequence 0x7A 0xhh 0xhh 0xhh 0xhh represents TC_BLOCKDATALONG(0xhhhhhhhh).
And all blocks needs to be concatenated before parsing strings and floats.
So, preparing the DataReader:
(Nearly the same as Sulthan's, but this treats Modified UTF-8 correctly.)
struct DataReader {
enum DataReaderError: Error {
case invalidFirstByte(byte: UInt16, offset: Int)
case invalidFollowingByte
case missingFollowingByte
case insufficientData
}
var data: Data
var currentPosition: Int
init(data: Data) {
self.data = data
self.currentPosition = 0
}
mutating func skipBytes(_ n: Int) {
currentPosition += n
}
private mutating func readBigEndian<T: FixedWidthInteger>() throws -> T {
guard currentPosition + MemoryLayout<T>.size <= data.count else {
throw DataReaderError.insufficientData
}
var fixedWithInteger: T = 0
let range: Range<Int> = currentPosition ..< currentPosition + MemoryLayout<T>.size
withUnsafeMutableBytes(of: &fixedWithInteger) {ptrT in
let uint8Ptr = ptrT.baseAddress!.assumingMemoryBound(to: UInt8.self)
data.copyBytes(to: uint8Ptr, from: range)
}
currentPosition += MemoryLayout<T>.size
return fixedWithInteger.bigEndian
}
mutating func readFloat() throws -> Float {
let floatBits: UInt32 = try readBigEndian()
return Float(bitPattern: floatBits)
}
mutating func readUnsignedShort() throws -> Int {
let ushortValue: UInt16 = try readBigEndian()
return Int(ushortValue)
}
mutating func readInt() throws -> Int {
let intValue: Int32 = try readBigEndian()
return Int(intValue)
}
mutating func readUnsignedByte() throws -> Int {
guard currentPosition < data.count else {
throw DataReaderError.insufficientData
}
let byte = data[currentPosition]
currentPosition += 1
return Int(byte)
}
mutating func readBytes(_ n: Int) throws -> Data {
guard currentPosition + n <= data.count else {
throw DataReaderError.insufficientData
}
let subdata = data[currentPosition ..< currentPosition+n]
currentPosition += n
return subdata
}
mutating func readUTF() throws -> String {
//Get byte size of the string
let count = try readUnsignedShort()
//Decoding Modified UTF-8
var utf16: [UInt16] = []
var offset = 0
while offset < count {
let firstByte = UInt16(data[currentPosition + offset])
if firstByte & 0b1_0000000 == 0b0_0000000 {
utf16.append(firstByte)
offset += 1
} else if firstByte & 0b111_00000 == 0b110_00000 {
guard offset + 1 < count else {throw DataReaderError.missingFollowingByte}
let secondByte = UInt16(data[currentPosition + offset + 1])
guard secondByte & 0b11_000000 == 0b10_000000 else {throw DataReaderError.invalidFollowingByte}
let codeUnit = ((firstByte & 0b000_11111) << 6) | (secondByte & 0b00_111111)
utf16.append(codeUnit)
offset += 2
} else if firstByte & 0b1111_0000 == 0b1110_0000 {
guard offset + 2 < count else {throw DataReaderError.missingFollowingByte}
let secondByte = UInt16(data[currentPosition + offset + 1])
guard secondByte & 0b11_000000 == 0b10_000000 else {throw DataReaderError.invalidFollowingByte}
let thirdByte = UInt16(data[currentPosition + offset + 2])
guard thirdByte & 0b11_000000 == 0b10_000000 else {throw DataReaderError.invalidFollowingByte}
let codeUnit = ((firstByte & 0b0000_1111) << 12) | ((secondByte & 0b00_111111) << 6) | (thirdByte & 0b00_111111)
utf16.append(codeUnit)
offset += 3
} else {
throw DataReaderError.invalidFirstByte(byte: firstByte, offset: currentPosition+offset)
}
}
currentPosition += offset
return String(utf16CodeUnits: &utf16, count: utf16.count)
}
var isAtEnd: Bool {
return currentPosition == data.count
}
}
We can parse your MN.dat as follows:
let mnUrl = Bundle.main.url(forResource: "MN", withExtension: "dat")!
do {
let data = try Data(contentsOf: mnUrl)
var reader = DataReader(data: data)
reader.skipBytes(4)
//First collect all blocks
var blockData = Data()
while !reader.isAtEnd {
let contentType = try reader.readUnsignedByte()
if contentType == 0x7A {//TC_BLOCKDATALONG
let size = try reader.readInt()
let block = try reader.readBytes(size)
blockData.append(block)
} else if contentType == 0x77 {//TC_BLOCKDATA
let size = try reader.readUnsignedByte()
let block = try reader.readBytes(size)
blockData.append(block)
} else {
print("Unsupported content type")
break
}
}
//Then read the contents of blockData
var blockReader = DataReader(data: blockData)
while !blockReader.isAtEnd {
let string = try blockReader.readUTF()
print(string)
let float1 = try blockReader.readFloat()
print(float1)
let float2 = try blockReader.readFloat()
print(float2)
//Use string, float1, float2 as you like
}
} catch {
print(error)
}

You may need to modify the code above if your binary data may contain other content types.
I will show you how to parse Java-encoded data. However, since I cannot understand the format of the file, the response will not be complete:
First, load the file:
// load the file
let fileUrl = URL(fileURLWithPath: "/Users/sulthan/Downloads/MN.dat")
let data = try! Data(contentsOf: fileUrl)
Second, create a simple Java data reader:
// create a simple data reader
class Reader {
let data: Data
private var offset = 0
init(data: Data) {
self.data = data
}
var hasMoreData: Bool {
return offset < data.count
}
func skip(length: Int) {
offset += length
}
func readByte() -> UInt8 {
defer { offset += 1}
return data[offset]
}
// java bytes are unsigned
func readJavaByte() -> Int8 {
return Int8(bitPattern: readByte())
}
func readBytes(length: Int) -> Data {
defer { offset += length }
return data.subdata(in: offset ..< offset + length)
}
private func readJavaUShort() -> UInt16 {
let byte1 = UInt16(exactly: readByte())!
let byte2 = UInt16(exactly: readByte())!
return (byte1 << 8) | byte2
}
func readJavaShort() -> Int16 {
return Int16(bitPattern: readJavaUShort())
}
// Java UTF-8 encodes the length as first two bytes (unsigned java short)
func readJavaUtf() -> String? {
let length = readJavaUShort()
let data = readBytes(length: Int(length))
return String(data: data, encoding: .utf8)
}
private func readUInt32() -> UInt32 {
let short1 = UInt32(exactly: readJavaUShort())!
let short2 = UInt32(exactly: readJavaUShort())!
return (short1 << 16) | short2
}
func readJavaInt() -> Int32 {
let short1 = Int32(exactly: readJavaShort())!
let short2 = Int32(exactly: readJavaShort())!
return (short1 << 16) | short2
}
// interpret the 4 bytes as a floating point number
func readJavaFloat() -> Float {
let bits = readUInt32()
return Float(bitPattern: bits)
}
}
Third, parse the data. I cannot do this completely since the data format is unknown:
// create a reader from our data
let reader = Reader(data: data)
// some data I don't understand
reader.skip(length: 4)
var offset = 0
while reader.hasMoreData {
// some data I don't understand in the beginning and after every 52 items
if offset % 53 == 0 {
reader.skip(length: 5)
}
print(reader.readJavaUtf())
print(reader.readJavaFloat())
print(reader.readJavaFloat())
offset += 1
}
The data parsing will crash with the provided data after some items are parsed. I am assuming you know how to handle that since you know the format.

How do i convert HexString To ByteArray in Swift 3

I'm was trying to convert hexString to Array of Bytes([UInt8]) I searched everywhere but couldn't find a solution. Below is my swift 2 code
func stringToBytes(_ string: String) -> [UInt8]? {
let chars = Array(string)
let length = chars.count
if length & 1 != 0 {
return nil
}
var bytes = [UInt8]()
bytes.reserveCapacity(length/2)
for var i = 0; i < length; i += 2 {
if let a = find(hexChars, chars[i]),
let b = find(hexChars, chars[i+1]) {
bytes.append(UInt8(a << 4) + UInt8(b))
} else {
return nil
}
}
return bytes
}
Example Hex
Hex : "7661706f72"
expectedOutput : "vapor"
This code can generate the same output as your swift 2 code.
func stringToBytes(_ string: String) -> [UInt8]? {
let length = string.characters.count
if length & 1 != 0 {
return nil
}
var bytes = [UInt8]()
bytes.reserveCapacity(length/2)
var index = string.startIndex
for _ in 0..<length/2 {
let nextIndex = string.index(index, offsetBy: 2)
if let b = UInt8(string[index..<nextIndex], radix: 16) {
bytes.append(b)
} else {
return nil
}
index = nextIndex
}
return bytes
}
let bytes = stringToBytes("7661706f72")
print(String(bytes: bytes!, encoding: .utf8)) //->Optional("vapor")
Here is a sketch of how I'd do it in a more idiomatic Swift style (this might be Swift 4 only):
func toPairsOfChars(pairs: [String], string: String) -> [String] {
if string.count == 0 {
return pairs
}
var pairsMod = pairs
pairsMod.append(String(string.prefix(2)))
return toPairsOfChars(pairs: pairsMod, string: String(string.dropFirst(2)))
}
func stringToBytes(_ string: String) -> [UInt8]? {
// omit error checking: remove '0x', make sure even, valid chars
let pairs = toPairsOfChars(pairs: [], string: string)
return pairs.map { UInt8($0, radix: 16)! }
}
Following code may be help for you
extension String {
/// Create `Data` from hexadecimal string representation
///
/// This takes a hexadecimal representation and creates a `Data` object. Note, if the string has any spaces or non-hex characters (e.g. starts with '<' and with a '>'), those are ignored and only hex characters are processed.
///
/// - returns: Data represented by this hexadecimal string.
func hexadecimal() -> Data? {
var data = Data(capacity: characters.count / 2)
let regex = try! NSRegularExpression(pattern: "[0-9a-f]{1,2}", options: .caseInsensitive)
regex.enumerateMatches(in: self, options: [], range: NSMakeRange(0, characters.count)) { match, flags, stop in
let byteString = (self as NSString).substring(with: match!.range)
var num = UInt8(byteString, radix: 16)!
data.append(&num, count: 1)
}
guard data.count > 0 else {
return nil
}
return data
}
}
extension String {
/// Create `String` representation of `Data` created from hexadecimal string representation
///
/// This takes a hexadecimal representation and creates a String object from that. Note, if the string has any spaces, those are removed. Also if the string started with a `<` or ended with a `>`, those are removed, too.
init?(hexadecimal string: String) {
guard let data = string.hexadecimal() else {
return nil
}
self.init(data: data, encoding: .utf8)
}
/// - parameter encoding: The `NSStringCoding` that indicates how the string should be converted to `NSData` before performing the hexadecimal conversion.
/// - returns: `String` representation of this String object.
func hexadecimalString() -> String? {
return data(using: .utf8)?
.hexadecimal()
}
}
extension Data {
/// Create hexadecimal string representation of `Data` object.
/// - returns: `String` representation of this `Data` object.
func hexadecimal() -> String {
return map { String(format: "%02x", $0) }
.joined(separator: "")
}
}
Use like this :
let hexString = "68656c6c 6f2c2077 6f726c64"
print(String(hexadecimalString: hexString))
Or
let originalString = "hello, world"
print(originalString.hexadecimalString())
After lot searching and thinking here is how you do it
func toByteArray( _ hex:String ) -> [UInt8] {

Using MD5 hash value on an ansi string in Swift 3

I have a small function that takes a string and returns its MD5 hash value. The problem is, that it expects a UTF8 string, and I need it to calculate a hash value of a byte array encoded with iso-8859-1 (~ansi).
How can I change the following code to accept a byte array of characters, then return its hashed value?
static func md5(_ string: String) -> String {
let context = UnsafeMutablePointer<CC_MD5_CTX>.allocate(capacity: 1)
var digest = Array<UInt8>(repeating:0, count:Int(CC_MD5_DIGEST_LENGTH))
CC_MD5_Init(context)
CC_MD5_Update(context, string, CC_LONG(string.lengthOfBytes(using: String.Encoding.utf8)))
CC_MD5_Final(&digest, context)
context.deallocate(capacity: 1)
var hexString = ""
for byte in digest {
hexString += String(format:"%02x", byte)
}
return hexString
}
The tricky part is the CC_MD5_Update call. Thanks.
You can easily modify your function to take an arbitrary byte
array as argument. CC_MD5_Update is mapped to Swift as
func CC_MD5_Update(_ c: UnsafeMutablePointer<CC_MD5_CTX>!, _ data: UnsafeRawPointer!, _ len: CC_LONG) -> Int32
and you can pass an array as the UnsafeRawPointer parameter:
func md5(bytes: [UInt8]) -> String {
var context = CC_MD5_CTX()
var digest = Array<UInt8>(repeating:0, count:Int(CC_MD5_DIGEST_LENGTH))
CC_MD5_Init(&context)
CC_MD5_Update(&context, bytes, CC_LONG(bytes.count))
CC_MD5_Final(&digest, &context)
return digest.map { String(format: "%02hhx", $0) }.joined()
}
(I have also simplified it a bit.)
Alternatively, pass a Data argument:
func md5(data: Data) -> String {
var context = CC_MD5_CTX()
var digest = Array<UInt8>(repeating:0, count:Int(CC_MD5_DIGEST_LENGTH))
CC_MD5_Init(&context)
data.withUnsafeBytes {
_ = CC_MD5_Update(&context, $0, CC_LONG(data.count))
}
CC_MD5_Final(&digest, &context)
return digest.map { String(format: "%02hhx", $0) }.joined()
}
which can then be used as
let s = "foo"
if let data = s.data(using: .isoLatin1) {
let hash = md5(data: data)
print(hash)
}
Update for Swift 5:
import CommonCrypto
func md5(data: Data) -> String {
var context = CC_MD5_CTX()
var digest = Array<UInt8>(repeating:0, count:Int(CC_MD5_DIGEST_LENGTH))
CC_MD5_Init(&context)
data.withUnsafeBytes {
_ = CC_MD5_Update(&context, $0.baseAddress, CC_LONG(data.count))
}
CC_MD5_Final(&digest, &context)
return digest.map { String(format: "%02hhx", $0) }.joined()
}
If you are sure your 'string' contains only utf8 characters, call CC_MD5_Update with string.utf8 so:
CC_MD5_Update(context, string.utf8, CC_LONG(string.lengthOfBytes(using: String.Encoding.utf8)))
Strings in swift are 'interesting', this is a good read on the topic: https://oleb.net/blog/2016/08/swift-3-strings/
// requires a bridging header with this:
// #import <CommonCrypto/CommonCrypto.h>
func MD5(_ string: String) -> String? {
let length = Int(CC_MD5_DIGEST_LENGTH)
var digest = [UInt8](repeating: 0, count: length)
if let d = string.data(using: String.Encoding.utf8) {
d.withUnsafeBytes { (body: UnsafePointer<UInt8>) in
CC_MD5(body, CC_LONG(d.count), &digest)
}
}
return (0..<length).reduce("") {
$0 + String(format: "%02x", digest[$1])
}
}

Finding the first non-repeating character in a String using Swift

This finds the duplicates in the array, but i'm looking for something that finds the first non-repeating character in a string. I've been trying to figure out a way to do this and I cannot figure it out. This is the closest i've gotten.
var strArray = ["P","Q","R","S","T","P","R","A","T","B","C","P","P","P","P","P","C","P","P","J"]
println(strArray)
var filter = Dictionary<String,Int>()
var len = strArray.count
for var index = 0; index < len ;++index {
var value = strArray[index]
if (filter[value] != nil) {
strArray.removeAtIndex(index--)
len--
}else{
filter[value] = 1
}
}
println(strArray)
In order to tell if a character repeats itself, go through the entire array once, incrementing the count of occurrences in a dictionary:
let characters = ["P","Q","R","S","T","P","R","A","T","B","C","P","P","P","P","P","C","P","P","J"]
var counts: [String: Int] = [:]
for character in characters {
counts[character] = (counts[character] ?? 0) + 1
}
let nonRepeatingCharacters = characters.filter({counts[$0] == 1})
// ["Q", "S", "A", "B", "J"]
let firstNonRepeatingCharacter = nonRepeatingCharacters.first!
// "Q"
Here is a simple solution
let inputString = "PQRSTPRATBCPPPPPCPPJ"
func nonRepeat (_ input: String) -> String {
for char in input {
if input.firstIndex(of: char) == input.lastIndex(of: char) {
return String(char)
}
}
return ""
}
print (nonRepeat(inputString))
In the above example it would print "Q"
func firstNonRepeatedCharacter(input: String) -> Character?{
var characterCount : [Character : Int] = [:]
var uniqueCharacter: Character?
for character in input{
if let count = characterCount[character]{
characterCount[character] = count + 1
if(uniqueCharacter == character)
{
uniqueCharacter = nil
}
}
else{
characterCount[character] = 1
if(uniqueCharacter == nil){
uniqueCharacter = character
}
}
}
return uniqueCharacter
}
Without extra loop to find character from characterCount dictionary
Here is the way I have found to detect the first non-repeated character. It removes spaces and punctuation to find the actual letter or number that does not repeat.
extension String {
func removeNonAlphaNumChars() -> String {
let charSet = NSCharacterSet.alphanumericCharacterSet().invertedSet
return self
.componentsSeparatedByCharactersInSet(charSet)
.joinWithSeparator("")
}
var firstNonRepeatedCharacter: Character? {
let alphaNumString = self.removeNonAlphaNumChars()
let characters = alphaNumString.characters
let count = characters.count
guard count > 0 else { return nil }
// Find unique chars
var dict: [Character: Int?] = [:]
for (index, char) in characters.enumerate() {
if dict[char] != nil {
dict[char] = (nil as Int?)
}
else {
dict[char] = index
}
}
return dict.filter { $0.1 != nil }.sort { $0.1 < $1.1 }.first?.0
}
}
I totally wonder why the accepted answer was considered correct. They are using
.first
method of a dictionary and that according to documentation would return a random element in the dictionary and not the first element as a dictionary in swift is not ordered like an array.
please do find below an implementation that works
func firstNonRepeatingLetter(_ str: String) -> String{
var characterDict = [String : Int]()
for character in str{
let lower = character.lowercased()
if let count = characterDict[lower]{
characterDict[lower] = count + 1
}else{
characterDict[lower] = 1
}
}
let filtered = characterDict.filter { $0.value == 1}
for character in str{
let lower = character.lowercased()
if let _ = filtered[lower]{
return lower
}
}
return ""
}
firstNonRepeatingLetter("moonmen") would return "e".
We can iterate once and keep the letter counts inside a dictionary.
Then, iterate again and return first letter where we see it was encountered once only (or "_" if not found a non-repeating letter):
func firstNotRepeatingCharacter(s: String) -> Character {
var letterCounts: [String: Int] = [:]
var result: Character = "_"
for letter in s {
if let currentLetterCount = letterCounts[String(letter)] {
letterCounts[String(letter)] = currentLetterCount + 1
} else {
letterCounts[String(letter)] = 1
}
}
for letter in s {
if letterCounts[String(letter)] == 1 {
result = letter
break
}
}
return result
}
OrderedDictionary makes this easy for all Sequences of Hashables, not just Strings:
import struct OrderedCollections.OrderedDictionary
extension Sequence where Element: Hashable {
var firstUniqueElement: Element? {
OrderedDictionary(zip(self, true)) { _, _ in false }
.first(where: \.value)?
.key
}
}
/// `zip` a sequence with a single value, instead of another sequence.
public func zip<Sequence: Swift.Sequence, Constant>(
_ sequence: Sequence, _ constant: Constant
) -> LazyMapSequence<
LazySequence<Sequence>.Elements,
(LazySequence<Sequence>.Element, Constant)
> {
sequence.lazy.map { ($0, constant) }
}
func getFirstUniqueChar(string:String)->Character?{
var counts: [String: Int] = [:]
for character in string {
let charString = "\(character)"
counts[charString] = (counts[charString] ?? 0) + 1
}
let firstNonRepeatingCharacter = string.first {counts["\($0)"] == 1}
return firstNonRepeatingCharacter
}
print(getFirstUniqueChar(string: string))
import Foundation
import Glibc
var str:String = "aacbbcee"//your input string
var temp:String = ""
var dict:[Character:Int] = [:]
for char in str{
if let count = dict[char]{
dict[char] = count+1//storing values in dict and incrmenting counts o key
}
else{
dict[char] = 0
}
}
var arr:[Character] = []
for (key, value) in dict{
if value == 0{
arr.append(key)//filtering out, take characters which has value>0
} //int(arr)
}//print(arr.count)
if arr.count != 0{
outer:for char in str{//outer is labeling the loop
for i in arr{
if i == char{
print(i,"is first")//matching char with array elements if found break
break outer
}
else{
continue
}
}
}
}
else{
print("not found")
}
func firstNonRepeatedChar(string: String) -> Character {
var arr: [Character] = []
var dict: [Character : Int] = [:]
for character in string.description {
arr.append(character)
}
for character in arr {
dict[character] = (dict[character] ?? 0) + 1
}
let nonRepeatedArray = arr.filter { char in
if dict[char] == 1 {return true}
return false
}
let firstNonRepeatedChar = nonRepeatedArray.first
return firstNonRepeatedChar!
