SomeDude: Your outline and especially your emphasis on what a
rank beginner needs to know is very good.
Would you consider writing it up yourself? Not the whole thing,
maybe but the beginner info and the compiler/linker appendices.
You have a commendable prose style.
There are tutorials

Thanks. That did the trick.

I'm trying to add formatted output to my decimal arithmetic
module. Decimals should format like floating point, using 'E',
'F' and 'G', etc.
I would expect a format string like %9.6e to parse as width =
9, precision = 6, using exponential notation.
In std.format there is a FormatSpec struct
In the Phobos documentation for std.format:
[O]utput is sent do this writer. Typical output writers include
std.array.Appender!string and std.stdio.BlockingTextWriter.
std.stdio doesn't have a BlockingTextWriter but it does have a
LockingTextWriter.
Typo? Name change? BlockingTextWriter is

I'm working on a decimal arithmetic project and I need 128 bit
integers in order to implement the decimal128 type. (The decimal
value is stored in 128 bits; the coefficient field is 114 bits,
to hold values with 34 decimal digits.)
I could use BigInt (but that's overkill) or I could code them

In that case I would still prefer :=, since the first can be

I'm not sure what you're asking/saying

Unless this is done, the utility of const, pure, nothrow and

Any reason why they shouldn't be?
One reason is memoization, aka lazy initialization,

Summarizing the earlier discussion, there were four schools of

From std.bigint docs:
All arithmetic operations are supported, except unsigned shift

I think this is a great idea and a good example of adding to the
