As mentioned in an earlier thread I'm very new to C/C++ ( as mike said RAD man)
I went threw the book -- on somebody's advise.
(its probably one of the best
books and probably the fastest way to learn C++ ) I wanted to recreate side by
side
the same thing in " D "  for myself to learn and maybe for whoever wants to
learn D .
But what I saw monitoring this news group for a while, I saw that a
lot of difficulties arise from trying to interpret C / C++ to D.
Therefore I
decided instead interpreting as mentioned above, I will try just to present the
problem what needs to be solved and with your help, try to solve it by writing
the proper code ( not interpreted ) // with brief comments
I ' m   s u r e  t h a t   m a n y   w o u l d   b e n e f i t   from this.
I will try to elaborate as far as my knowledge  goes .
A message to
Walter , if you feel some code has a better way or is interpreted please comment
.
It is very appreciated every body's input Thanks in advanced..
Problem number 1;   We would like our program should write , Hello world , this
is my first D program !.

I think translating the book examples is actually a great idea.

This is something I'd like to help with if I can find the time.  Though I haven't read "Accelerated C++" myself, I like the concept of writing beginning tutorials or porting tutorials to D from another language. The only book I have here at school with me is "Big Java", but I'm sure I can grab a C or C++ book from a roommate and look through that.  A Java comparison might be good, though; perhaps the GUI aspects could be done using Dig or another D interface to the Windows API (any interfaces to Linux GUI API's yet?).

That's what this newsgroup is for.
