Chris Nicholson-Sauls:
What *would* be nice would be to have "InPlace" variations of
these functions for use cases such as yours, in order to re-use
resources.
example.filterInPlace!isLongEnough();
Sometimes I'd like some in place operations in Phobos.
To remove duplicate items from a mutable array of sortable items:
data.length -= data.sort().uniq().copy(data).length;
or to just remove the item "5" from an array of ints, it's not
hard to miss the necessary self-assignment:
data = data.delete(5);
