oh yeah, you are right. That's one thing I do like about D
though: I find it so much easier to remember (perhaps because I
wrote most the libs I use myself). I forget the difference
between stuff like substr and substring in Javascript or chop
and chomp in Ruby and so on. I have to refer to the docs to
remember this stuff, even when I write it all the time.
I find D's ways to be much easier to store in the brain,
despite D arguably being a bigger, more complex language.
Maybe because the static type system allows for overloading and
so all of these utility functions don't have to do a million
different things depending on what you pass to them.
