I have just published two chapters that present tuples and
TypeTuple sufficiently-completely and sufficiently-consistently

Tuples:

More Templates:

I haven't officially announced those yet. I appreciate any
review. (I am sure there are lots of English grammar and syntax
issues as well. :-/ Those mature over time organically. :) )
Thank you,

Some obvious catches:
http://ddili.org/ders/d.en/tuples.html : `S.tupleof[i].stringof`
value was recently changed.
`object.tupleof` part does not mention important fact that tuple
does not contain values of object members but actual members as
if it is a reference.
There are few imprecise wordings but I am afraid being 100%
precise when speaking about tuples will result in "WTF, what dark
magic this is?" :(
http://ddili.org/ders/d.en/templates_more.html : "The following
code instantiates the template for int and dchar" - `double` is
actually used in snippet instead of dchar.
Variadic template arg chapter should probably mention "variadic
args of length 1" idiom used to have parameter accepting types,
values and aliases at once.
