Static Array Length in Swift

We can get the length of an array using the .count property like this:

let ourArray = [50, 40, 30]

// Printing the length:
print(ourArray.count) // Output: 3

Using the length

We can use the length to access items from the end of an array.

Because arrays are 0-indexed, the index of the last item is count - 1:

let ourArray = [50, 40, 30]

// Printing the last item:
print(ourArray[ourArray.count - 1]) // Output: 30

// Printing the second to last item:
print(ourArray[ourArray.count - 2]) // Output: 40
