array.isSorted(predicate) // tell if the array is sorted using predicate
Good.
Another possibility is to let D2 accept ? and ! too inside variable
names, so they can become (as in Ruby I think, and something similar is
common in Lisp-like languages too):
array.sort(predicate)
array.sort!(predicate); // void function
array.sorted?(predicate)
Note that Ruby only accept this as a suffix, but yeah it's part of the
identifier.
And I'd love this, but the ! suffix is totally ambiguous with the
template instantiation syntax, and the ? suffix would be ambiguous in
the ternary operator "?:".
