In D, tuple is not built in type, it is defined in stantard library. To 
use it, you must import module std.typecons

Example:
import std.typecons;
 
struct Foo {}
 
Tuple!(int, string, Foo) baz() {
    // some computation here
    return tuple(13, "inches", Foo());
}
 
void main() {
    auto bar = baz();
    assert(bar == tuple(13, "inches", Foo()));
}
