Or even:

Works in Python (tm)
_ is a regular symbol (variable name in this case), there is nothing
special about the second form, which is exactly the same as the first. And
I didn't even know this. In Python, it doesn't matter anyway, because it
is dynamically typed, and you can assign arbitrary values to the same
variable.
Apparently, writing foreach (index,_;something) in D isn't a special
case either; it just declares a variable named _. Several nested loops
using _ are not possible.
PS: let's hope Walter recognizes the need of *good* syntax for a simple,
basic language construct like tuples. Just look at language_fan's D code
and compare it with the corresponding Python code posted afterward. The
D code looks so ridiculous.
BTW, the trailing ; is not needed ;)
