"iota" is already present with the same semantics in 1.25 languages: C++ and Go. Anyhow, what's a better name?
For me, a Google search for "C++ iota" only returns discussions about whether such a function actually exists in the STL. Is it really in the standard?
Anyway: Looking at the definition of ïota in Phobos, it simply seems to be a slicing operation with a stride. Most intuitive to me would be to rename the function to "slice" and the option step to "stride"?
