Re: How to reuse functions
ERRATA CORRIGE: in place of x_s replace with x_n. Sorry

About the chain 'reverseArg'+'partial' I reached to use it partially, only the partial part; so it worked with exception of reverseArg. I made several attempt to make it working but without succes. About the scope/declaration suggestion they worked, fine. I've also made a change declaring x_s as static and worked as well (without change of scope and without use of enum). Unfortunatly I tried to exted the code by introducing array of functions F1-[F1, F2, ...] and I saw such solution cannot apply. That why because of built functions passed (as example) to lambda function they do not store information. And I went back to delegates that store the necessary data to create the correct function. I've seen some method to pass from delegates to function, but onestly I found a to complex approach and much more a workaround that a good programming. Going back to my study of D I will find the right way of thinking to approch such problems (I imagine now the trick could be using templates... I will see). Thanks again. I've learned many things by looking at you solution.
