good thing (it helps "chunking" in the mind of the programmer).
Out of curiosity, what syntax did you propose? I definitely agree that lazy
range comprehensions would
be a Good Thing (tm).
That said, the current D way of writing it isn't all that different from Python:
return reduce!("a+b")(map!("a*a")(sequence), 0);
