This paper delves into the methods of accessing characters in strings via indices in C# and Swift programming languages. Based on Q&A data, C# achieves O(1) time complexity random access through direct subscript operators (e.g., s[1]), while Swift, due to variable-length storage of Unicode characters, requires iterative access using String.Index, highlighting trade-offs between performance and usability. Incorporating reference articles, it analyzes underlying principles of string design, including memory storage, Unicode handling, and API design philosophy, with code examples comparing implementations in both languages to provide best practices for developers in cross-language string manipulation.
