?
I really sure of this? Can this be true
? Pls I need more clarity on this by professional in this group.


I am of the opinion that D is much more powerful than Java since 
I am familiar with the language to some extent. I am even to 
start a GUI app in java due to the fact I have no find a GUI 
toolkit in D that meet all my need.

I will appreciate detail analysis of this claim
