D has a algol like syntax like C and like C++ .
But there are some point where the syntax don't have a regularity and
consistence with the remaining of the language.
The new, delete and cast, for example, do not conform with the syntax of C/C++
or D.
Why they are not simple functions like in math?
Why not write they as "language functions"?

foo = New(typeOfFoo, 1, 2, 3);
Delete(Foo);
bar = cast(foo, typeOfBar);
s = format("Why not %s ?" , s2);

In article <bd85sc$1m5$1@digitaldaemon.com>, Bono Vox bono@u2.art says...
>bar = cast(foo, typeOfBar);

I'd prefer

bar = cast(typeOfBar, foo);
