The `foreach` will cover your needs like you said but ironically enough, I like and use the original `for` loop.
Thanks for your reply as well, rempas... I guess I covered most things in my earlier reply, but on the `for` loop: Coming from Basic and then Pascal, when I first saw that atrocity I was like... seriously? I think most people don't see it anymore because they have become so used to it, but the sequence of abort condition and increment steps is completely arbitrary, and commas and semicolons are used like literally *nowhere else* in the language (C and C++ that is, not sure yet about D). It's a marvel of inconsistency. I don't mind it as much today, since I must have written thousands of `for` loops by now and I do it totally automatically. I just don't know how it could become such a success story in so many languages and it *just*. *won't*. *die*. :)
Well, the competition is pretty weak, yeah. Tho based on my experience, it doesn't worth to waste your time on anything else at this point. We can speak about trying a different language after mine is out ;)
Sounds intriguing. Anything I can look at yet? Or still all top secret? :)
