It depends on what you expect when you read source code. I don't
want to read how seats in the memory are assigned to bits and
bytes. Instead I want to read what is done.
But that might be just me.
Unfortunately not.
Anyways,
Here is what I've come up with.
```
import std.stdio;
void main()
{
string a = "abc;def;ab";
string b;
for(int i=0; i<a.length; i++){
write(i);
writeln(a[i]);
if (a[i] != ';'){
b ~= a[i];
}
}
writeln(b);
}
```
PRO:
- saves two lines of boilerplate code
CONS:
- raw loop
- postinc ++ is only permitted in ++C
- inconsistent spacing around "="
- mixing tabs and spaces for indentation
- arrow code
