Good points on why an explicit range distinction is desired; I
probably should have looked harder at how std.container worked.
I'm also probably spoiled/unlearning from C#'s IEnumerableT
syntactic sugar (foreach over enumerator, LINQ) which handles
most of these considerations for you. You
Why doesn't this work? I'm assuming I'm not fully understanding
how alias this interacts with ranges (i.e. the range isn't
being reset after count is finished with it), but I'm not sure
how to fix this either:
import std.algorithm;
class ArrayContainer
{
int[] values;
this(int[] v) {
Thanks all for the quick replies.
You're right- I am mixing the container with the range to ill
effect. I'm just doing this for practice so I'm not tied to any
one solution, but I was trying to make the container work as much
like a built-in type as possible. With an array the above tests
So from what I've found searching the newsgroup and my own
experimentation, the best way to accomplish compile time printing
is to do something like this:
string ctMain()
{
//evaluate and return the final result string
}
enum result = ctMain();
pragma(msg, result);
I'm not a fan of having
