Hi, while reading TDPL I start wondering what is the background between function and delegate.
They seem to provide more or less the same funcionality, except delegate allows the capture of the function declaration environment. Most of the programming languages with support for closures only have one way of doing it. Why is D providing two ways of doing it? For me sounds like a feature similar to register, or inline for doing what should be the compilers work. Deciding the best implementation for the closure. Thanks, Paulo
