Today I learnt D. I have a lot of experience with other
languages, but I think D fills a gap. So far I've really liked
it, having used C# and C a lot it feels right. I'm also pretty
excited about some of the more powerful features.
I can teach myself a language no problem, but to make it useful
it's always better to write it the way it was meant to be written.
Firstly, is there any good resource on what idiomatic D usage is?
For instance Go has a huge page called Effective Go which tells
you how you should use features, rather than what they are.
And secondly, I would be grateful if anyone could take a look at
this very simple program and comment on how I'm using the
language (ignoring the fact it's really simple and the lexer is
rubbish). Just stuff like interface, class and variable naming
and program structure.
Thanks a lot,
Matt
