Features of Swift over Objective-C
1) Swift introduces advanced types not found in Objective-C, such as Tuples. We will cover the concepts in upcoming articles.
2) Swift also introduces optional types, which handle the absence of a value. Optionals say either "there is a value, and it equals x" or �there isn't a value at all".
