How to write multi statements in a range block with Dlang?

Question

I would like to write multi statements in a range block, like this:

long[] W = [0L];
long[] V = [0L];

array.each!(s => // "s" has following strings "3 4" 
  W ~= s.split(" ")[0].to!long;
  V ~= s.split(" ")[1].to!long;
);

But this causes compile error. Is there any way to write all statements in the range ?

Answer 1

Just use slightly longer form function syntax:

long[] W = [0L];
long[] V = [0L];

array.each!( (s) {
    W ~= s.split(" ")[0].to!long;
    V ~= s.split(" ")[1].to!long;
  }
);

(s) { x; y; z; } works anywhere s => x works, except with s=>x if you need the return value, the long-form is (s) { return x; }.
