Chad Joan:
Hmmm, I don't remember python doing this. Do you mean like
Java?
I meant Python. In Python when you write:
import foo
You have then to use:
foo.bar()
If you want to import just bar you have to use:
from foo import bar
There is also this syntax, used only in special situations, like
when you are using the REPL:
from foo import *
That imports all the names of foo.
So I would have to write code like this:
---
import std.file, std.array, std.stdio;
void main()
{
std.stdio.writeln(
std.array.replace(
cast(string)std.file.read("file.txt"),"\r\n","\n"));
}
---
instead of code like this:
---
import std.file, std.array, std.stdio;
void main()
{
writeln(replace(cast(string)read("file.txt"),"\r\n","\n"));
}
---
???
See the solutions used in Python.
But this stuff is long settled in D, so this discussion is now
academic :-)
