Is that a property of the D community being younger (the community itself, rather than the people in the community) and smaller than C and C++ communities. Or is it something more culture based. Any ideas?
- WalterBright 7y agoThat's a great question. It seems to be a property of the D community wanting the language to get better and being willing to accept change. In the olden days (1989) people were more willing to accept change in C, such as value-preserving rather than sign-preserving integer promotion rules, and some improvements to the C preprocessor.
