A feature I use surprisingly often in Python is the else clause on

occurs, the else

stdout.flush();

I kept trying to do flush(stdout), but I had the syntax wrong I guess. :)
Thx.

fflush(stdout) is the way to do it in C, so that's probably where you got
it from.
in D, stdout is actually a File struct,
Code:
void main()
{
static string[2] szFormat = [%s, %s];
}
This compiles, but this is buggy code. The first declaration should have been:
static string[2] szFormat = [%s, %s];
I can't tell whether the first case is legit code. You might *want* to
initialize all the elements with the same

void main()
{
static string[2] szFormat = [%s, %s];
}
This compiles, but this is buggy code.

Yeah, I don't have a lot of votes left, in fact I only have one left. :s
I think we're basically on our own when it comes to these kinds of
issues. We'll either get a compiler with a better warning system
(maybe GDC.. DDMD in the future), or we'll make some kind of Lint tool
for D. The latter

In that bug report I ask for an error, not a warning.
or we'll make some kind of Lint tool for D.
Eventually some lint tools will surely be written for D, but lot of people
don't use lints. What I am looking here is
I'm trying to understand the design of ranges. Why does popFront only set the
front() property to return the next element in the range? Why not return the
element in the call to popFront right away?
For example code like this (which doesn't work since popFront doesn't return):
void main()
{

Isn't it wasteful to have to call both popFront() and front() to
simultaneously remove an element from a range and return it? I mean it's an
extra function call, right?
Isn't also a waste to return something that isn't going to be used? There are
times it is
