Just for a bit of fun, I saw this question posted on reddit the other day and wondered how *you* would solve this in D?

Since they didn't say *pure* function, I'd cheat:

int f(int n) {
  static bool isOddCall;
  isOddCall = !isOddCall;
  if(!isOddCall)
      return -n;
  return n;
}

:P

Well if you solved it *that* way, *I* wouldn't hire you :p
