我已经看到了What’s the _ underscore representative of in Swift References?的问题和答案,我知道下划线can be used to represent a variable that isn’t needed.

如果我只需要一个元组的值,就像上面链接中的示例一样,这是有意义的：

let (result,_) = someFunctionThatReturnsATuple()

但是,我最近遇到了this code：

do {
    let _ = try DB.run( table.create(ifNotExists: true) {t in
        t.column(teamId,primaryKey: true)
        t.column(city)
        t.column(nickName)
        t.column(abbreviation)
        })

} catch _ {
    // Error throw if table already exists
}

如果我删除let _ =,我不会收到任何编译器警告或错误.在我看来,这样更简单,更易读.

try DB.run( table.create(ifNotExists: true) {t in
    t.column(teamId,primaryKey: true)
    t.column(city)
    t.column(nickName)
    t.column(abbreviation)
    })

该代码的作者写了a book and a blog about Swift.我知道作者不是绝对正确的,但它让我想知道是否有我遗漏的东西.
