Both these forms are the same. It's called UFCS (uniform function
call syntax). Here's some material to help you understand what's
going on here:

Auto-complete in D is tricky because of this feature and no-one
has invested any time to figure out a nice way to provide
auto-complete for this.
There is DCD by Brian Schott that looks very impressive but UFCS
suggestions are not implemented yet.
