Swift is like Kotlin
BASICS
Hello World
Swift
print("Hello, world!")
Kotlin
println("Hello, world!")
Variables And Constants
Swift
var myVariable = 42
myVariable = 50
let myConstant = 42
Kotlin
var myVariable = 42
myVariable = 50
val myConstant = 42
Explicit Types
Swift
let explicitDouble: Double = 70
Kotlin
val explicitDouble: Double = 70.0
Type Coercion
Swift
let label = "The width is "
let width = 94
let widthLabel = label + String(width)
Kotlin
val label = "The width is "
val width = 94
val widthLabel = label + width
String Interpolation
Swift
let apples = 3
let oranges = 5
let fruitSummary = "I have \(apples + oranges) " +
                   "pieces of fruit."
Kotlin
val apples = 3
val oranges = 5
val fruitSummary = "I have ${apples + oranges} " +
                   "pieces of fruit."
Range Operator
Swift
let names = ["Anna", "Alex", "Brian", "Jack"]
let count = names.count
for i in 0..<count {
    print("Person \(i + 1) is called \(names[i])")
}
// Person 1 is called Anna
// Person 2 is called Alex
// Person 3 is called Brian
// Person 4 is called Jack
Kotlin
val names = arrayOf("Anna", "Alex", "Brian", "Jack")
val count = names.count()
for (i in 0..count - 1) {
    println("Person ${i + 1} is called ${names[i]}")
}
// Person 1 is called Anna
// Person 2 is called Alex
// Person 3 is called Brian
// Person 4 is called Jack
Inclusive Range Operator
Swift
for index in 1...5 {
    print("\(index) times 5 is \(index * 5)")
}
// 1 times 5 is 5
// 2 times 5 is 10
// 3 times 5 is 15
// 4 times 5 is 20
// 5 times 5 is 25
Kotlin
for (index in 1..5) {
    println("$index times 5 is ${index * 5}")
}
// 1 times 5 is 5

CLASSES
Declaration

Checking Type
Swift
var movieCount = 0
var songCount = 0

for item in library {
    if item is Movie {
        movieCount += 1
    } else if item is Song {
        songCount += 1
    }
}
Kotlin
var movieCount = 0
var songCount = 0

for (item in library) {
    if (item is Movie) {
        ++movieCount
    } else if (item is Song) {
        ++songCount
    }
}

    case 11...99: print("double digits")
    case 100...999: print("triple digits")
    default: print("four or more digits")
}
Kotlin
val nb = 42
when (nb) {
    in 0..7, 8, 9 -> println("single digit")
    10 -> println("double digits")
    in 11..99 -> println("double digits")
    in 100..999 -> println("triple digits")
    else -> println("four or more digits")
}
Downcasting

    }
}
Kotlin
