digitalmars.D.learn - when should I use a function call without parenteses?

(considering the function doesn't has arguments or they're 
default, of couse)

I want to know when/why should I use or if it depends only to 
programmer's coding style..

f / baa.foo

versus

f() / baa.foo()


strange use f symbol being f a function but I can get used to it 
very easily.

It is really just personal preference, people tend to leave the parens off when they just add subjective noise. A good rule though would be to leave the parens off when it is an obvious function call or if the function is cheap enough that the call doesn't matter (if it is just a thin property for example).

basically yeah it is just that.
