dstats reborn
David Simcha's stats library is full of useful code and it was a shame to let it rot. I've patched it up to work with modern D compilers and added dub support. https://github.com/John-Colvin/dstats http://code.dlang.org/packages/dstats I have also made a pull request to David's repository to integrate these changes. If they are merged there then I'll redirect the dub respository and add a link in the readme on my github fork.
Re: DConf 2014 Day 3 Talk 2: Real-Time Big Data in D by Don Clugston
I wish I'd asked for the mic before I made the (inaudible) comment about signedness, so here it is: Subtracting unsigneds is almost always a bug. The problem (realised by the C++ community) is that length should be signed.

Great! dstats is useful for A/B performance measurements, with its various statistical tests.

Of course, I'm really bad at using the current D snippets (aside from `main`--use that one all the time). Those opBinary and friends snippets look quite useful.

The snippets should now be easy to use together/chain (e.g. an imp (import) snippet places the cursor on the beginning of the next line so imp can be used for another import, wrap in try/catch places the cursor to be ready to add more catch blocks, module license can be replaced by using another snippet inside it, etc. There are some rather intelligent snippets, e.g. an operator builder for opBinary/opUnary/opOpAssign that will generate the skeleton for all operators typed in by the user, automatic DDoc Params: generation from function parameters, etc. I want to eventually try to merge this back to the default repository, but I'd like some comments/criticism/ideas first. Should any snippets be removed? Added? Any problems with the current snippets? (the wrap in try/catch in the previous version had issues with wrapping indented text, for example) Trying this out now. It's very good so far, nice work! /uri

I used dmd. i sometimes got the feeling that you underestimate the sheer power of todays clang or gcc optimizers - so partly what gdc/ldc can do with your code reminds me of brian schotts exmaple of his sse2 optimized version of his lexer - the dmd generated was much faster then the normal version, but gdc/ldc results of the unoptimized versions are still 50% faster i understand your focus on dmd - but talking about fast code and optimizing WITHOUT even trying to compare with other compiler results is just a little bit strange for someone who stated speed = money
