#Deck in D My first experience with the D programming language. A deck of cards in D! Uses the fisher-yates algorithm for an efficient and unbiased shuffle.
import deck;
Deck deck = new Deck();
deck.shuffle();
Card[] myPokerHand = [deck.deal(),deck.deal()];
Card[] yourPokerHand = [deck.deal(), deck.deal()];
#Patience Sort Algorithm: ##Longest increasing subsequence. Given a sequence of elements c1, c2, โฆ, cn from a totally-ordered universe, find the longest increasing subsequence.
make
./psort
Implementation of the patience sort algorithm to solve this problem with a deck of cards. O( n log(n) )
Remarks on D: So far, so good. It wasn't too far of a jump from C++ to D but I'm already loving the differences. The single class declaration syntax is a breath of fresh air after C++'s tendency of double declarations (one in the header, one in the implementation). D's native dynamic arrays are awesome. I did not get to use Array Slices yet but perhaps in my next project I will.
