    Returns an array containing the results of mapping the given closure over the sequence’s elements.

    func map<T>(_ transform: (Self.Element) throws -> T) rethrows -> [T]

    Parameters

    Overview

    In this example, map is used first to convert the names in the array to lowercase strings and then to count their characters.

    let cast = ["Vivien", "Marlon", "Kim", "Karl"]
let lowercaseNames = cast.map { $0.lowercased() }
// 'lowercaseNames' == ["vivien", "marlon", "kim", "karl"]
let letterCounts = cast.map { $0.count }
// 'letterCounts' == [6, 6, 3, 4]
