I'm enjoying this.
One thing jumped out at me: static does not mean execute at
compile time (exactly), it really means allocate this data in
thread-local storage.
Thanks for the explanation. I forgot about using enum instead. I
think I've only briefly encountered it before. I'm aware of the
global storage of static in this context. I like that it's the
same keyword for static foreach; that's kind of what I was
thinking when I wrote that just adding a static can result in
compile-time execution.
BTW, that tour page needs updating, it has a few errors in it.
You mean the Dlang tour? I've been meaning for a while to be able
to generate a url to its Gems section but I've never managed to
untangle its Vibe.d structure enough to do so.
