Re: canFind typing
Jonathan M Davis: Why wouldn't they be? You can compare int and double, and that's what find and canFind care about. Right, it's a matter of equality operator. In my code I was performing canFind on an array of tuples. So I didn't realize that the following code (where both tuple field type and field name are different) is accepted in D (probably I am getting used to the higher type strictness of functional languages): import std.typecons: Tuple; alias T1 = Tuple!(int, "x"); alias T2 = Tuple!(double, "y"); void main(string[] args) { assert(T1(1) == T2(1)); } Bye, bearophile

Why wouldn't they be? You can compare int and double, and that's what find and canFind care about. - Jonathan M Davis
