CLLocation distanceFromLocation (in Swift?)

Question

Can somebody please help me convert the following Objective-C statement to Swift?

CLLocationDistance distance = [fromLocation distanceFromLocation:toLocation];

I know that it must be simple to do that. I am brand new to iOS programming and any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you! :-)

Use Playground to figure it out. The documentation shows you exactly what this call should look like. – Headword

Use the documentation: func distanceFromLocation(location: CLLocation!) -> CLLocationDistance. In Xcode Command click on CLLocationDistance to get to the documentation and then search for distanceFromLocation. – Woolgathering

Answer 1

let distance = fromLocation.distanceFromLocation(toLocation)

New syntax:

let distance = aLocation.distance(from: anotherLocation)

Headword

now deprecated so use: let distance = location1.distance(from: location2) – Jennettejenni

Answer 2

func distanceFromLocation(_ location: CLLocation!) -> CLLocationDistance

Returns the distance (in meters) from the receiver’s location to the specified location.
