String Replace in Swift in Swift

In Swift, you can replace part of a string using the replacingOccurrences(of:with:) method:

s.replacingOccurrences(of: old, with: new)          // replaces all occurrences
s.replacingOccurrences(of: pattern, with: new,
    options: .regularExpression)                     // replaces using a regex pattern

Here are some examples:

let sentence = "I love cats"
let result = sentence.replacingOccurrences(of: "cats", with: "dogs")
print(result)  // "I love dogs"

let text = "aaa"
print(text.replacingOccurrences(of: "a", with: "b"))  // "bbb"

replacingOccurrences(of:with:) returns a new String — the original is not modified.
