So, I'm trying to develop a simple game written in Swift, but I'm having trouble doing a pretty simple thing. I can't manage to create a random CGPoint... When using arc4random, a compiler error shows up telling me that I can't use Int32 in a CGPoint. So, Is there any way to do this? Any workaround? Thanks!

回答1:
hi what about constructing an Int? Int(arc4random())
e.g.
var p = CGPoint(x:Int(arc4random()%1000),y:Int(arc4random()%1000))
回答2:
can also maybe make use of Swift's extensions of base types to create a reusable set of overloaded functions of CGPoint. Maybe something like:
extension CGPoint {
func random()->CGPoint { return CGPoint(x:Int(arc4random()%1000),y:Int(arc4random()%1000))}
func random(range:Int)->CGPoint {
return CGPoint(x:Int(arc4random()%range),y:Int(arc4random()%range))}
func random(rangeX:Int, rangeY:Int)->CGPoint {
return CGPoint(x:Int(arc4random()%rangeX),y:Int(arc4random()%rangeY))}
}
You can then write random CGPoints like this:
var p = CGPoint.random()
//random x and y with a range of 1000
or
var p = CGPoint.random(range:100)
//random x and y with a range of 100
or
var p = CGPoint.random(rangeX:200, rangeY:400)
//random x up to 200 and random y with a range of up to 400
Granted, I'm not in the Xcode IDE at the moment to check syntax / if it compiles correctly but hope that could be of help :-)

Swift 1.2 Update

Seems these type-level function calls are not allowed anymore with extensions...at least for CGPoint; probably because CGPoint is actually a struct and not a class based on the current IOS documentation.
Here's a more in-depth version of my extension that allows for Range types.
This is confirmed working as of XCode 6.4 Beta
(Github repository with Playground file found here:
https://github.com/princetrunks/Random-CGPoint-Extension)
//creates random CGPoints in Swift as of XCode Beta 6.4 (6E7)
extension CGPoint {
/*private functions that help alleviate the ambiguity of the modulo bias
and nested typecasting as well as recycle similar functionality
for either Int or Range type parameter inputs */
private func randomInt(num:Int) ->Int{
return Int(arc4random_uniform(UInt32(num)))
}
private func randomIntFromRange(numRange:Range<Int>) ->Int{
return Int(arc4random_uniform(UInt32((numRange.endIndex - numRange.startIndex) + numRange.startIndex)))
}
//private variable for the default range
private var defaultRange : Int{
get{return 1000}
}
//(a) public variable that creates a default random CGPoint
static var randomPoint = CGPoint.zeroPoint.random()
//(b) default random point creation
func random()->CGPoint { return CGPoint(x:randomInt(defaultRange),y:randomInt(defaultRange))}
//(c) using an Int parameter for both the random x and y range
func random(range:Int)->CGPoint {
return CGPoint(x:randomInt(range),y:randomInt(range))
}
//(d) allows for the specification of the x and y random range
func random(#rangeX:Int, rangeY:Int)->CGPoint {
return CGPoint(x:randomInt(rangeX),y:randomInt(rangeY))
}
//(e) allows the same functionality as (c) but with a Range<Int> type parameter
func random(range:Range<Int>)->CGPoint {
return CGPoint(x:randomIntFromRange(range), y:randomIntFromRange(range))
}
//(f) allows the same functionality as (d) but with a Range<Int> type parameter
func random(#rangeX:Range<Int>, rangeY:Range<Int> )->CGPoint {
return CGPoint(x:randomIntFromRange(rangeX), y:randomIntFromRange(rangeY))
}
}
Here's how we can test this extension:
//(a)
let r = CGPoint.randomPoint
//(b)
var anotherRandomPoint = r.random()
//(c)
anotherRandomPoint = r.random(1000)
//(d)
anotherRandomPoint = r.random(0...1000)
//(e)
anotherRandomPoint = r.random(rangeX:90, rangeY: 2000)
//(f)
anotherRandomPoint = r.random(rangeX:0...90, rangeY: 0...2000)
// generates 100 random CGPoints between -1000 and 999
for _ in 0...100 {
anotherRandomPoint.random(-1000...1000)
}
