You can't to tail recursion in it's basic form because there is a multiplication at the end.

A clip of the comedian that Andrei refers to can be seen here:

Just watched the whole video, even though I've seen a prior version of this talk.  It was different enough in the jokes and delivery that I still enjoyed it.  Some notes:

1. Saying "Anywho" to segue to a new topic seems to be a verbal tic of Andrei's now.

2. It's claimed that scoped imports sped up D compilation: has this been measured?  It would help if measurements were cited, as done for compile-time regex performance at the end.

3. It's better that you show usage examples of a PEGGED grammar now, as opposed to a previous talk that ended with the mixin slide, but I think it'd be best if you actually worked a toy example out and showed the generated D code, to really drive the point home.  Even better if it wasn't something you could trivially write in D itself, like the arithmetic example you gave.

Thanks for the feedback! I'll keep it in mind. -- Andrei

I have a full Jade template parser in Pegged that I just need to finish the
d code gen part, could it be an interesting example?

Yes. How well-known is Jade? -- Andrei

It is well known. I thought handlebars was used more but those github numbers say different.

Vibe.d had a template engine called diet which is almost like Jade. It is also completed so you might prefer that as an example.
