IE. There's nothing on the D website that is "good for
learning" D.
There's an offsite tutorial aimed at "absolute begginers".
****ing great set of options aint it.
Ali's book is not a tutorial or aimed at absolute beginners,
it's /the/ material for learning D and in my opinion a great
reference book.
It says on the website and I quote... "a great starting point for
absolute beginners"
But the fundamental problem and what everyone seems to be
refusing to acknowledge is that in spite of what *you think
people should be doing* many visitors are ending up using
language reference to learn D.
Or they use that reference to get their first impressions.
It's like going to a restaurant and being given the recipes
instead of the menu.
But keep burying you heads in the ground.
