Would you also happen to know why the following gives an error?
import std.stdio;
void main()
{
int[3][] arr = [ [0,1,2], [3,4,5], [6,7,8], [9,10,11] ];
writefln(arr);
arr[1] = arr[$-1]; // main.d(11): Error: cannot assign to static array
arr[cast(uint)1]
//arr[1][0] = arr[$-1][0]; // I could do it manually like this instead,
or with a loop, but that seems rather silly.
//arr[1][1] = arr[$-1][1];
//arr[1][2] = arr[$-1][2];
arr.length = arr.length - 1;
writefln(arr);
}
