Hi all,

Long time since I read/posted here but I saw this and thought it 
might be good PR for D:

Should also be fun.

Ciao,
Regan

I was the same way earlier, but reddit doesn't need personal 
information, so you can just make a throwaway account. Did the 
first question and it was painfully simple.

!!!! SPOILERS (stop reading here if you want to do it) !!!





     auto input = "arbitrarily long string of '(' and ')'";

     int floor;
     foreach(movement; input)
         floor += (movement == '(' ? 1 : -1);

     writeln(floor);

I over-reacted. In fact, I have accounts on three of those, except 
twitter. Oh well...

If you copy the input with spaces (like I did) the code above gives 
wrong result because the requirement is the input should contain only 
"(" and ")".

how is this D speek. it's far shorter and easier to read if you 
use
writefln("floor %s",input.count('(') - input.count(')'));

Yes, I don't find chaining of methods all that easy to read 
either, but you can do less work by taking advantage of D already 
knowing the length of the input:

import std.stdio;
import std.algorithm;

void main(){
	immutable input = "(((())";
	immutable long len = input.length - 2*input.count(')');
	writeln(len);
}

Thanks for suggesting this. This is fun! Although, I've taken on 
quite a different challenge myself. I'm computing all of the 
answers only by using my console in Firefox. I'm actually getting 
through these pretty quickly. (It helps to know some ES5 and 
ES6.) I can imagine the D code already, and they are actually 
pretty similar to the JavaScript I've been writing.
