CollectionOfOne
A collection containing a single element.
@frozen struct CollectionOfOne<Element>You can use a CollectionOfOne instance when you need to efficiently represent a single value as a collection. For example, you can add a single element to an array by using a CollectionOfOne instance with the concatenation operator (+):
let a = [1, 2, 3, 4]
let toAdd = 100
let b = a + CollectionOfOne(toAdd)
// b == [1, 2, 3, 4, 100]Citizens in Swift
