Is there an easy explanation of why I cannot do:
real partialSum ( immutable Tuple ! ( long , long , real )
data )
but instead have to do:
real partialSum ( T ... ) ( T data )
to be frank I really don't get this latter which is what compiles -- I
have no idea if it works yet there are other problems with my code.
Specifically, how do I create an array of tuples? TDPL has little on
tuples (p.163 basically) and the online manual has little as well. I
tried:
auto inputData =3D Tuple ! ( long , long , real )
[ numberOfThreads ] ;
but this errors out with:
pi_d2_parallelMap.d(26): Error: template instance template 'Tuple' =
is not defined
pi_d2_parallelMap.d(26): Error: Tuple!(long,long,real) must be an a=
rray or pointer type, not void
what is worse trying to set values in the array:
foreach ( i ; 0 .. numberOfThreads ) { inputData[i] =3D tuple ( 1 +=
i * sliceSize , ( i + 1 ) * sliceSize , delta ) ; }
I get the error:
pi_d2_parallelMap.d(27): Error: undefined identifier tuple
Please tell me I am being stupid and that I should read some specific
reference of TFM :-)
Thanks.

auto inputData = new Tuple !

Hummm... I thought I had put that in but clearly I had not :-(( OK so that explains the bulk of the problems on this code, I knew it was something stupid on my part, thanks for spotting it. However, now we may be getting to something more serious. The line: foreach ( i ; 0 .. numberOfTasks ) { inputData[i] = tuple ( 1 + i * sliceSize , ( i + 1 ) * sliceSize , delta ) ; } now results in the error: /home/users/russel/lib.Linux.x86_64/DMD2/bin/../../src/phobos/ td/typecons.d(662): Error: can only initialize const member _field_field_2 inside constructor /home/users/russel/lib.Linux.x86_64/DMD2/bin/../../src/phobos std/typecons.d(26): Error: template instance std.typecons.tuple!(long,long,immutable(double)) error instantiating Which at first sight seems to indicate an error in the typecons package of Phobos. On the other hand, it is probably more reasonable to assume I still have something stupid wrong in my code.
It's not your code, you can work around it with cast(double)delta, or using tuple!(long,long,double) explicitly, I think. Tuple doesn't handle immutable or const really well, yet.
