Those are not reasonable non-mathematical uses. I've hated C++
iostreams from their very beginning. I never use them outside of test
code.
I think Andrei got it right with writefln().
What does 'fln' stand for? Is that something like "Format with LiNe
carriage return"?
With apologies to Andrei, I can't agree that it's pretty, but I suppose
it works. :)
The name and original implementation of writefln are Walter's and
predate my tenure with D. I just defined write() and writeln().
