You can also write
```d
auto s = cast(string)b; // or cast(string)(b)
```
instead of
```d
char[] s = cast(char[])b[0 .. $];
```
```d
import std.stdio;
import std.string;
void main() {
ubyte[8] b = [0x68, 0x65, 0x6C, 0x6C, 0x6F, 0x0A, 0x00, 0x00];
/* "hello\n\0\0" */
auto s = cast(string)b;
writefln("'%s, world'", s);
writefln("'%s, world'", s.strip("\n\x00"));
}
```
```
@mono:~/2-coding/d-lang/misc$ ./p2
'hello
, world'
'hello, world'
```
