Swift Optional values out of an NSSet

Question

Self.vertices is an NSSet. I'm having trouble getting the Vertex value out of the optional

The code below crashes in playgrounds.

func getVertex (x: Double, y: Double,z: Double) -> Vertex?
{

    for v : Vertex! in self.vertices {

        if v.isEqualTo(x, y: y, z: z) {
            return v
        }
    }
    return nil

}

Answer 1

that may be helpful:

let set: NSSet = // ...

for object : AnyObject in set {
    if let vertex = object as? Vertex {
        // do the main course
    }
}

I believe self.vertices contains AnyObject. So you should use following code

func getVertex (x: Double, y: Double,z: Double) -> Vertex?
{
    for v : AnyObject in self.vertices {
       if v is Vertex {
           if v.isEqualTo(x, y: y, z: z) {
              return v
           }
       }
    }
    return nil
}
