Actually I use an associative array with name as index, to contain different
data but it allows only string type. It forces me to cast all time.
ex:
string[char[]][int] a;
a[0]["Month"] = "Jan";
a[0]["Profit"] = to!string(1000); // when I want use this as int, I use :
to!int()
a[0]["Expenses"] = "6000"; // when I want use this as int, I use : to!int()
But as you can see, "Profit" and "Expenses" should be int or double to avoid
cast when I want calculate these fields.
It works with cast but I suppose it's slower than use exact type.
I would like to know if it's possible to have a associative array with multiple
type as a collection with phobos.
Are you sure it's not simpler to just use a struct?
struct Foo
{
int month; // or char[] month, or an enum
double profit;
double expenses;
}
