Duff's device.
According to Wikipedia, Duff's device (about which, until just
now, I knew nothing) can be implemented without goto. Then again,
this might be due to "features" of C++ that are not present in D.
In any case, isn't it the job of the compiler to unroll loops?
Why should the coder have to do this himself? Unless of course
he's using a thin shitty wrapper over assembly language that
claims falsely to be a high-level language - i.e. C.
