The last line should read: int all[] = x[]; and a dmd v1.030 compile agrees. The code from the book yields a compile error: Error: test.d(13): Error: cannot implicitly convert expression (x[]) of type int[] to int

Posted: 09/20/08 17:45:42 -- Modified: 09/20/08 18:07:49 by AEon On page 34, Array Operations, Copying, the example: y[0..2] = x[1..3]; // Same as y[1] = x[2]; . should read: y[1..2] = x[2..3]; // Same as y[1] = x[2]; . or y[0..2] = x[1..3]; // Same as y[0] = x[1]; and y[1] = x[2]; . to be correct. There are a few other Errata that are mentioned here: Errata for 'Learn to Tango with D' http://www.dsource.org/projects/dallegro/wiki/TangoBookErrata ...and might also be integrated.
