Argmin don't exist, but it could, and that's what counts. The
important thing in these slides is proof of concept, rather than
actual code snippets.

However, std.algorithm does have minPos, but it works a little
differently. For starters, it requires a binary pred, as opposed
to an unary weight function. second, it returns a range.

Anyways, this gets you the same result:

auto m = s.minPos!((a, b) => a.length < b.length).front;
