Like this?

let sets: [MyOptionSet] = [MyOptionSet(strings: ["one"]), MyOptionSet(strings: ["two"]), MyOptionSet(strings: ["one", "two"])]
let unioned = sets.reduce(MyOptionSet(rawValue: 0)) {
    (result, set) in return result.union(set)
}
unioned.rawValue

I was looking more for a generic approach that I could apply to all of the various OptionSets I have to decode from JSON. I suppose whether it’s from an array of strings or array of the OptionSet is less important, but getting to the array of the OptionSet itself is something I can already do.

>>> 	I’m dealing with a JSON API where sets of options are returned as arrays of strings. Representing these as OptionSets seems ideal. I can decode the arrays of strings into an array of individual OptionSet values, but I’ve run into a dead end when trying generically reduce the array of OptionSets to a single OptionSet value. I’ve tried variety of ways of definition a Collection extension, even tried defining a global function, but I can’t seem to use the OptionSet sequence initializer or reduce itself (cannot invoke insert with argument of type (OptionSet) (or T)). Any guidance here?
