Thank you for your attention. Drew Sikora Executive Producer GameDev.net I don't get to use D outside toy projects, given that my work is mostly centered on languages that live in the JVM and .NET ecosystems. However, I have written a very short article as a response to a job interview quiz with solutions in C++ and D. Not sure if it is publication worth. http://progtools.org/compilers/tutorials/queue/article.html -- Paulo
Re: Call for D articles
Paulo Pinto: http://progtools.org/compilers/tutorials/queue/article.html At the end you say: Additionally also shows D's compatibility with C++, given the small amount of changes between both implementations. Despite this, I think for an article the D version should be much more D-iomatic, both in formatting and in idioms/style. Like using contracts, not using core C functions, using pascalCase, etc. (Such changes are many, but they are quick and easy to do.) Bye, bearophile

Paulo Pinto: Thanks for the input, I will take it for an updated version of the article, if it just stays on my web site. I suggest to also offer a plain text (un-colorized) version of the code. I have spent minutes to convert it. Bye, bearophile

Bye, bearophile Actually that link is for reading online only, if you navigate to the article from the main page, there is a link to download a zip file with both C++ and D versions. -- Paulo
