 BTW we need to deal with slices as well as indexes. I think the way to 
 do this is to make a slice into a type of index.


Such slice also needs a way to specify the end of the enclosing interval, the $
syntax.
Slice may enjoy a lot a third optional argument (default = 1), that represents
the stride.

(In the Chapel language all this is generalized into the concept of Domain,
that I think is a good language feature to introduce in D).
