Please, I'm sure there's worse. My real problem with it is that there doesn't seem to be any logical reason for it. I just consider it annoying. And when the language doesn't seem to have anything else over D, I chose the one that let me have my cake and eat it too. First impression of Go: if y'all are gonna be that anal about one little detail... First impression of D: much cleaner syntax, C compatible, dead?(yes I had to throw that in there.) Y'all should be thankful I nitpick, otherwise I'd be using Go and not attempting to get my friends to try D. ; )
