When learning Swift, do I have to understand C/C#/C+ ?

I'm hoping to learn Swift only, as my brain can't hold any more information. (I don't think so any way.)

Swift is meant to become the de facto programming language for IOS and Mac, so you should be able to do everything you want to do in Swift alone. It compiles to very fast code, which is comparable in speed to what is produced by lower level languages. And at the same time, of course, it is vastly easier to learn. Also, Swift is closely related in style to Objective-C, which has been the primary language for IOS and Mac development in the past. So if you are only interested in Apple development and want to learn a low level C-based language, you may want to go with Objective-C over C++ as it will be easier to learn it together with Swift. https://www.quora.com/Do-I-really-need-C-or-C++-to-learn-iOS-programming-Or-should-I-just-learn-only-Swift

I think you will be OK with swift itself as long as you want to develop for IOS or MAC. However, afterwards, you may want to get some brief knowledge of Objective-C as you deal with more APIs. But swift must just suffice for the most part.
