How does one initialize c in D ?

none of the statements below works
c = cast(ubyte) [ [5, 5, 5], [15, 15,15], [25, 25,25], [35,
35,35] ];
This is an invalid cast because it tries to coerce the entire
literal into an ubyte. Also it would be an assignment instead of
an initialization because this is independent of c's declaration.
c[0] = ubyte[3] [5, 5, 5] ; c[1] = ubyte[3] [15, 15,15] ;
c[2] = ubyte[3] [25, 25,25] ; c[3] = ubyte[3] [35, 35,35] ;
A cast is usually specified as `cast(TargetType) value` but not
necesseray in this example. Use this instead:
c[0] = [5, 5, 5] ; c[1] = [15, 15,15] ;
c[2] = [25, 25,25] ; c[3] = [35, 35,35] ;
for (int i= 0; i<3; i++) for (int j= 0; i<4; j++) c[i][j]=
cast(ubyte)(10*i +j) ;
The array indices and the inner loop condition are wrong
for (int i= 0; i<3; i++) for (int j= 0; j<4; j++) c[j][i]=
cast(ubyte)(10*i +j) ;
You could also use foreach-loops, e.g.
foreach (j, ref line; c)
foreach (i, ref cell; line)
cell = cast(ubyte) (10 * i + j);
