@Don @bearophile Would you guys visit this URL real quick http://compsci.ca/v3/viewtopic.php?t=9518 This is the site that I'm using to learn D. If you scroll down 3-4 screens full, you'll come to the "array" topic. Is this tutorial outdated, wrong, or what, because it doesn't deem to sync with what you two fine fellows are telling me about creating dynamic arrays in the D-Language. TIA.. -- duke
