In fact, it would be nice to do something like this:

foreach(ubyte i; 0..256)
     writefln("%d", i);

but the code above will generate an error like: 256 cannot be 
converted to ubyte!

On the other hand:

foreach(ubyte i; 0..255)
     writefln("%d", i);

Works, but only will show numbers from 0..254, without "255"!

So, maybe this is more safer:

foreach(ushort i; 0..ubyte.max+1)
     writefln("%d", cast(ubyte)i);
