The underlying architecture of the language will often times

I spoke too soon, it appears Zig's default return type for its

Officially, there should be an unpacking solution, like

Wouldn't that be nice? I hope a clean and terse

I hope all is well with everyone. I have come to an impasse. What
is the best way to unpack a tuple into multiple variables in D
similar to this Python code? Thank you!

Thank you so much for your input! Cheers! :)
I should have qualified the above with: _ and I will be
performing operations on the numeric datatype, since just
outputting simply strings, as in the above example, would require
nothing more than string data types. :)

But when the program interacts with piped data, there may be
multiple \n characters and all of those might have to be
ignored before reading the next non-empty line. So you may want
to do readln.strip multiple times? I don't

As a general solution, you can use a function like this:

auto line = file.readln!S.strip;
if (!line.empty) {
