Ubuntu 14.04.4 下安装 Swift 2.2.1

Swift 2.2.1最近发布下载了，是一个互动和有趣的编程语言，适用于iOS，OS X，tvOS和watchOS。语法简洁而富有表现力，应用程序运行快如闪电。Swift 2.2带来了新的语法，新功能。

功能特性：

• Swift 2.2 includes support for Swift on Linux. The Linux port is still relatively new and in this release does not include the Swift Core Libraries (which will appear in Swift 3). The port does, however, include LLDB and the REPL.
• Swift 2.2 introduces a new compiler directive that makes cross-version compatibility a cinch: you can now specify blocks of code that should be read only if the compiler supports a specific Swift language version
• As of Swift 2.2, any keyword can be used as an argument label, with the exception of inout, var, and let
• Swift 2.2 introduces the ability to compare two tuples for equality, which means it will check each element in one tuple against the matching element in another, and report true if all elements match
