This is a way to insert an item in a sorted array:

import std.stdio: writeln;
import std.range: assumeSorted;
import std.array: insertInPlace;
void main() {
    int[] arr = [0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90];
    int x = 35;
    arr.insertInPlace(arr.assumeSorted.lowerBound(x).length, x);
    arr.writeln;
}


Haskell has the insert/insertBy functions (http://zvon.org/other/haskell/Outputlist/insertBy_f.html http://zvon.org/other/haskell/Outputlist/insert_f.html ).
Is it worth adding such small function to std.array?

-----------------------

Sometimes you want to print something coming out of a UFCS chain with a formatting string. In this case you can't append the writef/writefln at the end of the chain. The problem is easy to solve with two simple functions like this. Are they worth having in std.stdio?


import std.stdio, std.range, std.algorithm;

void ufcsWritef(T)(T data, string format) {
    writef(format, data);
}

void ufcsWritefln(T)(T data, string format) {
    writefln(format, data);
}

void main() {
    // Problem from:
    // reddit.com/r/dailyprogrammer_ideas/comments/15in89
    immutable txt = ["Line one", "Line 2"];
    foreach (i; 0 .. txt.map!q{ a.length }.reduce!max)
        txt.transversal(i).writeln;

    // Or equivalently:
    txt
    .map!q{ a.length }
    .reduce!max
    .iota
    .map!(i => txt.transversal(i))
    .ufcsWritefln("%(%s\n%)");
}
