import std.stdio;

string ascii = " .:;+=xX$&";

void main()

     for (idouble i = -2i; i <= 2i; i += .125i)
     {
         for (double r = -2; r <= 2; r += .0625)

             auto c = r + i;

                 z = z * z + c;
                 if (z.re * z.re + z.im * z.im > 4)
                     break;
                 ++iter;
             } while (iter < ascii.length - 1);
             write(ascii[iter]);
         }
         writeln();
     }
}

It compiles and works normally, unless i turn in optimizations:

---
$ dmd -O program.d
Internal error: backend/gloop.c 3400
---

Is this a bug? or something wrong in my code?

compiler: DMD64 D Compiler v2.058 (64 bit)
OS: gentoo linux x86_64

Congratulations, it's another compiler bug.

On Windows 32 bit this code behaves in another way, it doesn't crash:

import std.stdio;
void main() {
    for (idouble j = -2i; j <= 2i; j += 0.125i) {
        for (double r = -2; r <= 2; r += 0.0625) {
            cdouble c = r + j;
            writeln(c.re, " ", c.im);
        }
    }
}


Without -O:
-2 -2
-1.9375 -2
-1.875 -2
-1.8125 -2
-1.75 -2
...
1.75 2
1.8125 2
1.875 2
1.9375 2
2 2


With -O:
-0 -9.88131e-324
-0 -9.88131e-324
-0 -9.88131e-324
-0 -9.88131e-324
-0 -9.88131e-324
-0 -9.88131e-324
-0 -9.88131e-324
...
