import std.string;

int main( char [][] args )
{
     char[] str1;

     real[char[]] array;

     str1 = "akcom";
     str1 ~= "rofl";
     array[str1] = 1235.0123;

     printf( "%f %f\n", 123.123, array[str1] );

     return 0;
}

the output:
123.123000 -0.000000

%f denotes a double, not a real.  IIRC you need %lf, not %f.

Being on the Mac at the mo, I can't test it....

Or alternatively, use writef, which is much more typesafe.

lf works for double, f works for float, neither works for real.
