Cracking the iOS Interview
What is CustomStringConvertible?
It is a protocol to allow a type to provide custom textual descriptions of themselves. Every value in Swift is convertible.
Types that conform to the CustomStringConvertible protocol can provide its own representation to be used when converting an instance to a string. The String(describing:) initializer is the preferred way to convert an instance of any type to a string. If the passed instance conforms to CustomStringConvertible, the String(describing:) initializer and the print(_:) function uses the instance’s custom description property.
