 Try putting the "f" suffix on the first zeros in the second, third 


and foruth rows, too. It works for me:

 import std.math;

 void MakeRotationAboutX(float[4][4] m, float angle)
 {
     m[] = [[1f, 0, 0, 0],
            [0f, cos(angle * PI / 180), sin(angle * PI / 180), 0],
            [0f, -sin(angle * PI / 180), cos(angle * PI / 180), 0],
            [0f, 0, 0, 1]];
 }



It still fails with the same error, I did try adding the 'f' suffix, and 
it's probably needed, but that didn't fix it.

I have:

your code snippet works for me axactly like u put it here.

try a newer compiler version (dmd1.015 is pretty old) the actual stable 
release is dmd1.025 (when u need tango) or dmd1.026 when u use phobos.

Ah Yes,

I see the problem now. The dmd web site isn't entiredly up to date, you 
must go to the DMD 2 page to download the latest dmd 1 compiler:

http://www.digitalmars.com/d/2.0/dcompiler.html

verses:

http://www.digitalmars.com/d/2.0/download.html

rather confusing. Looks like the second is pointing to an old page.

Thanks for your help.

It's not an old page, this is actually Walter's policy.  I honestly think he 
just forgot to update it in a while, because at first, the "stable" download 
was always about 2 or 3 releases behind, not 11.

I don't quite understand. Both the pages say stable version... yet one 
is newer than the other.

I guess it's just a plain old case of Walter forgetting to update one of 
them :\
