Answer 1

First, put this function outside of your class (before "class" or after the last "}":

func == (leftItem: DatesStruct, rightItem: DatesStruct) -> Bool{
    return leftItem.sectionYear == rightItem.sectionYear
}

Then Use this:

struct DatesStruct: Equatable{
    var sectionYear : String!
    var sectionMonth : [String]!
}

var datesStructArray = [DatesStruct]()

func addMonthToYear(year: String, month: String){
    if let foundItem: DatesStruct = datesStructArray.filter({$0.sectionYear == year}).first {
        datesStructArray[datesStructArray.indexOf(foundItem)!].sectionMonth.append(month)
    }
}

Simply pass the year you're looking for and the month you want to add to addMonthToYear

Declare an initializer

  struct  datesStruct {
        var sectionYear : String!
        var sectionMonth : [String]!

        init(sectionYear: String!, sectionMonth: [String]!) {
            self.sectionYear = sectionYear
            self.sectionMonth = sectionMonth
        }
    }

var datesStructArray = [datesStruct(sectionYear: "year", sectionMonth: ["month1", "month2"])]

Then check whether the sectionMonth contains desired string
