Array gets sorted, then doubles are removed (uniq) and then

Ok, but what is map!(). What's the point of the exclamation mark,
is it a template specialization?
Yes, !(...) is template specialization.
It is the equivalent of <...> in c++.
The parentheses can be omited if only one argument is passed after the
exclamation mark.
map is a template of the std.algorithm module.

This kind of questions should go in digitalmars.D.learn.
No, please, template instantiation. Specialization is something
completely different, and doesn't happen at the call site.
I don't mean to be overly pedantic, but I think OP has a C++ background
or similar, so wrong terminology is not going to be helpful.
