Описание тега swift-playground
Swift playgrounds are interactive documents where Swift code is compiled and run live as you type. Results of operations are presented in a step-by-step timeline as they execute, and variables can be logged and inspected at any point. Playgrounds can be created within an existing Xcode project or as standalone bundles that run by themselves.
Playgrounds provide a great opportunity to document functions and library interfaces by showing syntax and live execution against real data sets. For the case of the collection functions, we’ve created the CollectionOperations.playground, which contains a list of these functions, all run against sample data that can be changed live.
Playgrounds allow you to edit the code listings and see the result immediately.
The new playgrounds are especially useful for educators. You can insert rich instructional content with paragraph headings, diagrams, and links to additional material alongside the interactive Swift code.
New features in Xcode 6.3 playgrounds include the following:
Inline results display the output of your Swift code within the main editor window. The results area can be resized and configured to show different views of the output.
Stylized text is easy to add to your playground by adding special markup to your comments based on the familiar Markdown syntax. Some available styles are headings, bold, italic, lists, bullets, and links to external or bundled resources.
The Resources folder bundles images and other content directly within the playground. These resources can be accessed from your Swift code or from the rich comments within the playground. (Note: with Xcode 6.3 beta 2 use Show Package Contents in Finder to drag files into the playground’s Resources folder.)
