from the below code, the expression "case [c]":

the `static foreach (c; "+-*/")` operates on the characters, so c
will be a char.
You use c in the case for the `switch (op)` where op is some char
array (string), so if you want to check it in the switch, you
will have to make c an array.
Here the example uses [c] but you could also `static foreach (c;
["+", "-", "*", "/"])` but I think [c] is a more elegant solution
because it's done at compile time anyway. (case values are
evaluated at compile time like if you would write enum x = [c];)
