Is there anyway in D to convenient fill a string variable with a char
say X times?
If you need to only print, you can:
import std.stdio;
import std.range;
void main() {
foreach (c; take(repeat('-'), 5))
write(c);
}
I know, I know, you said *convenient* ;) I heard write(ln) is to print
arbitrary ranges, so this'd come down to:
writeln(take(repeat('-'), 5));
and if universal call syntax worked correctly then even this would be
possible:
writeln('-'.repeat.take(5));
much easier to type.
BTW, I stumbled on this when crafting the example:
