Hi, is there an equivalent to C++ iostream's cout so that I can display several data types in a simple way such as

int d = 10;
double x = 0.4711;

cout << "d is " << d << " and x is " << x << ".";

I believe that D's function set in Phobos requires me to use different output functions for different data types which can be quite clumsy at times.

Thanks,
Tommy

Are you looking for
  import std.cstream;
  dout.writef("d is ",d," and x is ",x,".");
Format control can be supplied with something like
  dout.writef("d is %5d and x is %.10e.",d,x);

Ah! Didn't understand the docs in this case. Thanks!
