I'm not sure about how common it is, but I really don't like the idea of
calls like swap(1, 2) being legal. Seems like a step backward from C++.
I think if we ever get swap(1, 2) to compile and run we'd effectively
have destroyed the D programming language.
Depends on context.
int swap(int diskNum, int partitionNum);
Someone pointed out that swap could be a function that swaps heap
indexes, and might even take by ref not caring if you want the resulting
value that was swapped.
with(someHeap)
{
swap(1, 2); // swap indexes 1 and 2
}

Now that's great trolling!
