That's not what I wanted. Maybe I should explain instead of expecting you to divine my intentions, though :) I am trying to rewrite the following program in D--making it more elegant: http://melpon.org/wandbox/permlink/ff42FoyKgqJK60sm

As you can see, I can have one input line consisting of n words and then n integers and I can read from it easily. My question whether stdin.byLine allows me to do this remains unanswered (or I failed to understand the answer), although I am not hopeful.

You should be able to use `std.algorithm.take` to read exactly 5 integers. However, in order to read up to the first empty line, for example, the input would have to be a forward range (= "rewindable"), which stdin.byLine of course is not. Maybe you could constructor a wrapper range that caches input lines as necessary.

Okay, I think I'll simply skip this for now.

I hoped that there would be a way of reading stdin composable with std.algorithms, as is the case in C++.

I guess this works for now http://dpaste.dzfl.pl/6801615160e3

I have a follow-up question: why does zip not accept an array?
