Hi
What am I doing wrong here?

import std.stdio, std.range, std.algorithm, std.uni, std.utf, 
std.conv, std.typecons, std.array;

auto SE(A, B)(in A a, in B b){
     return (a-b)^^2;
}

void main(){
     auto a = [1, 2, 3], b = [1, 1, 1];
     lockstep(a, b, StoppingPolicy.requireSameLength).each!((a, 
b){ writeln(SE(a, b)); });
     lockstep(a, b, StoppingPolicy.requireSameLength).map !((a, 
b){ return  SE(a, b) ; }).each!writeln;  <- error here
}

The error:
map(Range)(Range r)
   with Range = Lockstep!(int[], int[])
   must satisfy the following constraint:
        isInputRange!(Unqual!Range)

Why it works with each (or foreach), but not with map? o.O

I just wanted to make a Sum of squared errors function.

Thanks in advance!

`lockstep` is specifically designed to work with `foreach`. I think 
`each` has a special case to work with `lockstep`. If you want to use 
other range functions, you should use `zip` instead of `lockstep`.

 `lockstep` is specifically designed to work with `foreach`. I 
 think `each` has a special case to work with `lockstep`. If you 
 want to use other range functions, you should use `zip` instead 
 of `lockstep`.

It works now:

   zip(StoppingPolicy.requireSameLength, a, b).map!(a => 
SE(a[])).sum / float(a.length);

I had a misconception (lazyness of learning) that zip is making a 
simple array, not a tuple array like I guessed lockstep does.

Also in zip() the StoppingPolicy is the first parameter and in 
lockstep() it's the last.

Thank you very much!
