import std.c.stdio;
import std.string;

int main(char[][] args)
{
char[] bla = "BLA";
printf(bla[0..1]);
return 0;
}

Prints "BLA" . shouldn't it print "B" ?

If I replace it with printf(bla[0..1] ~ \n);
then it is OK (it prints "B")
I am using v838

Cheers,
Luigi

Not a bug. D strings aren't necessarily null-terminated. printf, being a C function, expects a null-terminated string.

printf(toStringz(bla[0..1]));
 or
printf(bla[0..1] ~ \0);
