Thank you. I need to learn std.algorithm better.
Don't we all. Part of the problem with std.algorithm is its
power. It's
frequently the case that you think that something isn't there
when it's
either there under a different name, or you just have to look
at one of its
functions from a different angle to use it for what you're
trying to do. It
wouldn't surprise me at all if folks who know it quite well
get surprised by
what it can do at least from time to time.

when this happens, it would be great if the person could post
to the group a few lines about it so someone (possibly someone
else) can collate into a future series on gems in phobos.
maybe give subject some consistent name so it is easy to find
them later.
I regularly review std.algorithm just because I'm not used to
functional programming, it has so many useful things.
