That is three string slices, not three strings. This works for the
following statements:
string[3] stringarray;

You don't need any conversion. Characters are encoding values anyway:
auto s = "a";
assert(s[0] == 97);
However, don't forget that strings in D are UTF-encoded. So, what you
expect will work only for ASCII content.
