hi,

is there any way to get the index for an element when iteration using each!(x)?

 I know I can do this using foreach statement, but I prefer using the each template.

-----------
string s = "hello";
foreach(i, c; s) {
}
----------

how can I get to ?


Thanks!

Perhaps there are other ways, but you can use enumerate. For example
-----------
import std.algorithm;
import std.range;
import std.stdio;
void main() {
 string s = "hello";
 s.enumerate.each!(x=>writeln(x[0],":",x[1]));
}
-----------
Produces
-----------
0:h
1:e
2:l
3:l
4:o

Worth knowing that the tuples you get from enumerate actually have named members, so you can write:

    s.enumerate.each!(x => writeln(x.index, ":", x.value));

It actually works out of the box for `each`:

s.each!((index, value) => writeln(index, ":", value));
