I know there's a rumor out there that there is more than one "standard" library. I
think this is false since Phobos has always been the standard library.

On the other hand, there are alternate runtime libraries (Tango being the most
popular alternate runtime library).

I haven't read the Tango book, so I wouldn't know much about it. Does it require
you to install Tango to learn D? I don't know if that's the best way to learn D.
Perhaps there's some documentation at the Tango website that will help you get
installed and set up. That'd be great news. Also, you might be able to get some
more information about Tango in their forums and through IRC:

But using Tango may not be the best way for a newbie to start out with D. It might
be easier to start out learning D by learning Phobos. YYMV.
