Is there a convenience function that allows me to remove an/all
object(s) with a certain value from an array or do I need to
write one myself?
Here are some elements of strategy:
import std.algorithm;
import std.array;
auto arr = [2, 3, 4, 5, 3, 2, 4];
// Remove all
arr = arr.remove!(x => x==3);
assert(arr == [2, 4, 5, 2, 4];);
// remove all (filter works lazilly, we use array to get an
array nonetheless)
// filter is useful when composing functions, not so much
here
arr = arr.filter!(x => x==2).array;
assert(arr == [4, 5, 4]);
// Remove one, throw if the element is not found,
// we use countUntil to get the index.
arr = arr.remove(arr.countUntil(4));
assert(arr == [5, 4]);
