title: Is something in Swift like LINQ in C#
body: <p>I know that Swift is relatively new yet, but I would like to know if Swift have anything like <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_Integrated_Query" rel="noreferrer">LINQ</a> in C#?</p>
  
  <p>With LINQ I mean all the excellent tools like <em>Standard Query Operators</em>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anonymous_type" rel="noreferrer"><em>Anonymous types</em></a>, <em>Object Initializer</em>, etc.</p>
