Tuples: tuple()

Tuples: tuple()

You will get to learn about tuples and the use of the tuple() function in this lesson.

We'll cover the following...

Tuples

Tuples are for combining multiple type values to be used as a single object. They are implemented as a library feature by the Tuple template from the std.typecons module.

Tuple makes use of AliasSeq from the std.meta module for some of its operations.

Tuple and tuple()

Tuples are usually constructed by the convenience function tuple():

Press + to interact
import std.stdio; 

import std.typecons;



void main() {

    auto t = tuple(42, "hello");

    

    writeln(t);

}

The tuple call above constructs an object that consists of the int value 42 and the string value hello. The output of the program includes the type of the tuple object and its members.

The tuple type above is the equivalent of ...
