Hello World!
I am new at D, I'm making a sudoku solver in D, I wanted to add 
the option to read sudoku from a .txt file.

I am finding a bit confusing how to open, read and close files in 
D.

I am trying to mimic the C code:

FILE *f_in;
f_in=fopen("sudoku.txt");
if (f_in==NULL){
exit(1);
}
while(ch=fgetc() != EOF){
//convert char to int... put char in matrix...
}

could you help me? thank you, I appreciate it!
-Tabamon.

1) try to google "dlang read text file", most probably 1,2,3 link will help to u. 2) https://dlang.org/library/std/file/read_text.html string content = readText( fileName );

     string content = readText( fileName );
3) for matrix reading better to use byLine() https://dlang.org/library/std/stdio/file.by_line.html (see the samples below)
