Variant tries to mimic D's built-in rules for arithmetic conversions but:

import std.variant, std.stdio;
void main()

auto v1 = Variant(4.5f);
auto v2 = Variant(3.5f);
writeln((v1+v2).type()); // double
}

The reason is Variant doesn't try to convert to float in opArithmetic
(it's is easily fixed). But is it intentional?

I wrote this:

    writeln(typeof(4.5f + 3.5f).stringof);

To my surprise, the reported type was float, not double. Well that means it's a bug in Variant, could you please make a bug report (and hopefully a pull request fixing it)?


Thanks,

Andrei

Sure thing
