• Andrew Edwards (11/11) Mar 14 2004 Give the following:
• Phill (13/24) Mar 15 2004 You can do it this way as well although
• Vathix (5/18) Mar 15 2004 char[] str = new char[50];
• J Anderson (9/16) Mar 15 2004 Just a small quibble with this code:

Give the following:

char[] str;
for(int i = 0; i < 50; i++)
   str ~= "*";

is there another way to accomplish this in D?
In C++ I would simply:

std::string str(50, '*');

TIA,
Andrew

it is probably more hassle:

char[] another ;

    for(int i = 0; i < 50; i++)
    {
        another.length = i + 1;
     strcat(another, "*");
     }

You would need to :

import std.string;

Phill.

char[] str = new char[50];
str[] = '*';

Just a small quibble with this code:
    char[] str;
    str.length = 50; //Initialize size first
    foreach(inout char c; str)
        c = '*';

 is there another way to accomplish this in D?

 std::string str(50, '*');

Make your own function to do this.
