Analyst says the iPhone 5S (really iOS) will have a new "killer feature", we certainly hope so

-

HTC, Sony, and Samsung have all had their big reveals for new flagship devices, and Motorola/Google is still a couple months away from Google I/O and whatever announcement is made there. So, that means it's time for analysts to come back out and talk about Apple. The newest bit of "analysis" says that the iPhone 5S (but really iOS) will have a new "killer feature", which seems like a pretty obvious thing for Apple to aim at providing.

Morgan Stanley analyst Katy Huberty may be a bit more reliable of a source, because she has recently met with Apple CFO Peter Oppenheimer. Huberty is saying that "Apple will surprise this year" with "a killer feature that drives consumers increasingly to the platform”. She said that the feature would start on the iPhone 5S, but made it clear that whatever the improvement, it would be a software feature, because it would increase "the value of those 500 million [Apple] accounts."


Given that the "S" versions of the iPhone don't change the external design, and Apple focuses more on performance and software improvements with the "S" versions, it seems easy to assume this is a software feature. We'd certainly love to see a "killer feature" from Apple, because that insinuates that the feature would be something more bold and impressive than we've seen from Apple recently. Of course, it would be nice to see some UI changes as well, but that's not exactly a "killer feature".

Welcome Guide to Swift 5 Escaping String

-
Image
With the evolution of Swift, we often comes to create strings from raw text which can be a pain. Properly escaping any quotes or backslash characters in the raw text is an exercise in frustration. Swift 5, introduced with Xcode 10.2, introduces a new syntax to make it easier to work with raw text. Traditional Strings With String Literals To create a String from literal text, we use the common method of double quote (") as a starting and ending delimiter and the backslash (\) to escape special characters. For example, to create a String that preserves the double-quotes in this text: let title1 = "This is \"title\" here" // This is "title" here Swift 5 Custom String Escaping Swift 5 allows you to customize the delimiter and escape sequences. This is useful when working with raw text that might contain the delimiters or multiple escape sequence. Here we can pad the start, end and escape delimiters with one or more “ # ” characters....
