The D Language Progresses

Posted by michael on from the lots-of-letters-left dept.

xsniper writes "D made its debut here on Slashdot in August 2001. Since then, many new features have been implemented, to include: operator overloading and slew of additional functionalities. It was featured as a cover story for the February 2002 issue of Dr. Dobb's Journal, and has been ported to the UNIX environment. I encourage programmers to revisit the specs to see how Walter Bright has addressed their concerns. A copy of the compiler is also available for testing. I'm sure some would be surprised by the achievements made thus far."

    C++, ++ meaning +1, or in other words, D

    Since when does the ++ operator increment the variable name and not its value? Duh?
