Generic Instance Method

replaceSubrange(_:with:)

Replaces the text within the specified bounds with the given characters.

Declaration

mutating func replaceSubrange<C>(_ bounds: Range<String.Index>, with newElements: C) where C : Collection, C.Element == Character

Parameters

bounds

The range of text to replace. The bounds of the range must be valid indices of the string.

newElements

The new characters to add to the string.

Discussion

Calling this method invalidates any existing indices for use with this string.

Complexity: O(m), where m is the combined length of the string and newElements. If the call to replaceSubrange(_:with:) simply removes text at the end of the string, the complexity is O(n), where n is equal to bounds.count.
