What are some of the best Financial Libraries for D? I would like to be able to aggregate as much accurate information as possible.

Thanks.

I am not into financials, but these libs show up in a search: https://code.dlang.org/search?q=Decimal. Perhaps you know some other relevant terms to search for.

One of the sponsors of dlang is Symmetry Investments, who run a hedge fund. Their use of D is pretty advanced, and includes many libs and utilities that are not limited to financial applications. These are the ones that I know of: https://code.dlang.org/search?q=Mir, https://code.dlang.org/packages/dpp, https://code.dlang.org/packages/pegged,
https://code.dlang.org/packages/excel-d,
https://github.com/symmetryinvestments.

Assignment contracts also make it more difficult for people who work for financial firms to work on open-source projects that are directly related to finance.

Ok, what I'm talking about by Financial library is mainly aggregating data in to D from sources that provide them such as yahoo or google so I can do what I want with the data.

http/ftp client library, inspired by python-requests
https://code.dlang.org/packages/requests

A HTML scraper command-line application
https://code.dlang.org/packages/dominator

Or, just use Python.

Thanks.

if you want a type-safe money handling type, try https://code.dlang.org/packages/money

It's well documented, has straightforward code and does just what's advertised. It's also hosted on the dlang-community organization on GitHub, so it's easily possible to take over ownership if the project author disappears.
