Lack of verbosity.
Clear concise code, thanks to the automatic initialization of
class members, native strings/arrays/maps/slices, UFCS,
declaration-order independence, etc.
class TOTO
{
bool IsCool;
int Age;
TUTU[] Tutus;
TOTO[string] Totos;
void Foo( TUTU tutu )
{
Tutus ~= tutu;
Totos[ tutu.Name ] = tutu.Toto;
}
}
class TUTU
{
string Name;
TOTO Toto;
this( string name )
{
Name = name;
Toto = new TOTO;
}
}
void Bar(
ref TOTO toto
)
{
toto.IsCool = !toto.IsCool;
}
void main()
{
TUTU tutu;
TOTO toto;
tutu = new TUTU( "tutu" );
toto = new TOTO;
toto.Foo( tutu );
toto.Bar();
}
Absolutely no syntactic noise !!!
This is often overlooked, while D easily beats all its direct
competitors (C++, Java, C#, etc) on that point.
Just try to implement the same code as simply in C++ and you will
be convinced that this is D's strongest feature...
And this is also what makes D feel like a super-powered
JavaScript when I use it :)
