According to the grammar in dmd2/html/d/spec/lex.html both are
valid FloatLiterals. Any comments?
Just found this on the same page
| If a floating literal has a . and a type suffix, at least one
digit must be in-between:
|
| 1f; // OK
| 1.f; // forbidden
| 1.; // OK, double
Is there a rational for this restriction?
int foo(int n) { return n * 2; }
assert(2.foo == 4);
Now simply replace foo with f or L. I believe this ambiguity is
the whole reason.
