digitalmars.D - Idiomatic snippets

reply "Val" <admin programming-idioms.org> writes:
Hello Developers
I set up a website about how one would perform common programming 
tasks in the most idiomatic form in different languages. It is 
intended to be didactic, it's open to contributions (like a wiki) 
and we'd love to have more snippets written in D.
It would hugely help if a few of you picked a random idiom 
statement :
   http://www.programming-idioms.org/random-idiom
and clicked [(+) New implementation...] to write a D 
implementation. Most often, 2 lines suffice.

As you can see in the language coverage page: 
http://www.programming-idioms.org/about#about-block-language-coverage , we
don't have many D impl yet (click >> to reveal more than the 12 first langs).
You're also very welcome to add new idioms, as long as it's not 
D-specific, not tied to a library, and not a complex algorithm.
UI works fine but is not perfect yet, so any feedback is also 
welcome.

Cheers
  Val

Nice site, possibly successful, despite of being closed to 
Rosetta Code. The ability to edit without registration is a plus. 
Already added a few D stuffs.
What about a dice for the "go to random idiom" ? Also put in 
front of every page...

Cool. I added a couple already, very easy to do.

Note, it would be nice to have a way to link to docs for library 
functions used in the example. Demo and Origin links don't quite cut it.

Steve, I agree with you so I added the Doc link.

Very good suggestions. I'll use the Github tracker to manage them 
:
https://github.com/Deleplace/programming-idioms/issues/1  (dice

https://github.com/Deleplace/programming-idioms/issues/2  (link 
to doc)

Yes the website partially overlaps the purpose of Rosetta Code, 
but still has a lot of differences and a different approach. 
Let's says Programming-Idioms is for short snippets, and in only 
30 popular languages, not 584.

Thanks to your contributions, in only a couple of minutes D 
jumped at the 10th position of the most populated language in the 
site. Great!!

6th position actually! Another couple of minutes later. You guys 
rock.
