Swift - Tutorial

Swift is a general-purpose, multi-paradigm, compiled programming language developed by Apple Inc. and the open-source community. It was first released in 2014 as a replacement for Apple's earlier programming language Objective-C, as Objective-C had been largely unchanged since the early 1980s and lacked modern language features. It is built with the open source LLVM compiler framework and has been included in Xcode since version 6, released in 2014.
