double(forKey:)

Returns the double value associated with the specified key.

Declaration

func double(forKey defaultName: String) -> Double

Parameters

  • defaultName:

    The key to retrieve from the defaults database.

Return Value

The double value associated with defaultName, or 0.0 if the key isn’t present in the defaults database.

Discussion

This method automatically coerces certain types to their equivalent double values. The Boolean value true becomes 1.0 and false becomes 0.0. An integer becomes the equivalent double –– for example, 2 becomes 2.0. A string that contains a numerical value contains the equivalent double — for example, “123.4” becomes 123.4.
