That's great to hear. Note that it's also trivial to swap between the current stable release and the latest beta, if you want to try things out: sudo snap refresh --channel=1.3/beta [to switch to the 1.3.0-beta1 release] sudo snap refresh --channel=stable [to switch back to the latest stable release]

Snap packages for DMD and DUB
Hello all, As announced at DConf 2017, snap packages are now available for DMD 2.074.0 and DUB 1.3.0 in the official snap store. These should allow for installation on multiple different Linux distros (see below) on i386 and amd64 systems. Installing them is simple: first follow the `snapd` installation instructions here: https://snapcraft.io/docs/core/install ... and then: sudo snap install --classic --channel=edge dmd sudo snap install --classic --channel=edge dub where the `--classic` flag grants permission for the confinement options required by the packages. The `dmd` package also contains `rdmd`, `dustmite` and `ddemangle`. Note that by default the snap package exposes these namespaced on the name of the package (i.e. `dmd.rdmd`, etc.). To avoid this, use the `snap alias` command: sudo snap alias dmd rdmd sudo snap alias dmd dustmite sudo snap alias dmd ddemangle ... and then it should be possible to use the regular commands. Currently these packages are only released in the `edge` channel (out of `edge`, `beta`, `candidate` and `stable`). It would be good to have as many people (on as many different supported distros) try them out in order to get confirmation that they are working properly. Currently they are expected to work on at least: * Ubuntu 14.04, and 16.04 or later * Debian Testing and Unstable * OpenSUSE Leap In principle they ought to work on any system with a recent enough `snapd` (2.21 or later), but the above are the ones I have tried them on. On systems with snapd 2.24 (the latest release) it looks like there is an issue with rdmd: the sandboxing interferes with rdmd writing to the `/tmp` directory. It's not clear at this point if this is an issue with snapd or with rdmd itself, but I'm looking into it. Special thanks to Martin Nowak who took time with me at DConf to help in setting up the snap store account for these packages. Enjoy, and let me know how you all get on with these packages!

Re: D support for the Meson build system
Btw, to make Meson and other build systems work really well, we would need this bug fixed in DMDFE: https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16746 At the moment, one needs to ninja clean way too often to get a good build.

Perhaps observation? Head and tail are also pretty common timeseries functions (probably would need to go through pandas to get a reminder on other common stuff). Also, Series might also include data labels for columns. And access by data label. You might also be interested in Python's xarray http://xarray.pydata.org/en/stable/why-xarray.html

And access by data label. The second part of the example for mir.ndslice.topology: slide is not that intuitive. It seems like what you're basically doing is the same as assert(sw == [8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36]); (or something) but it's just less obvious to do it by a formula. I don't know how strongly I feel about this, but I find the naming between minIndex/maxIndex and minPos/maxPos and minmaxIndex/minmaxPos strange. All three produce indices, it's just that the Pos do it backwards and minmax give both min and max. It seems like a lot of separate functions for things that could be done with one multi-purpose template. Regardless, if you keep it the way it is, then maybe given the plethora of finding functions, split it off to a separate module? Would it make sense to bump that thread you posted earlier in case people didn't see it due to dconf?
