When i compile:
<code>type[key2][key1] assocArray1;
assocArray1[key1].remove(key2);</code>

everything is ok, but building
<code>type[key2][key1] assocArray1;
return (assocArray1[key1].remove(key2));</code>

gives
<code>dmd: expression.c:817: void expToCBuffer(OutBuffer*, HdrGenState*,=20
Expression*, PREC): Assertion `pr !=3D PREC_zero' failed.</code>

while the book states it should return bool, which typeof() supports

Part of this a compiler error, the clue is that it's expression.c. Looks like it was fixed. http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=4914 It was fixed in 2.050. Now the error is: Error: cannot implicitly convert expression ... of type void to bool Here is the relevant report for that: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=4523 -Steve
