Probably nowhere. There are no built-in tuples in D. std.typecons.Tuple is
probably what you're looking for. It's a struct which defines a tuple. There's
also std.typetuple.TypeTuple which is a compile time construct useful in meta-
programming. But there is no tuple built into D. There has been some
discussion of improving the syntactic sugar with regards to std.typecons.Tuple
- either via some additional templates or possibly adding something to the
language itself - but that hasn't happened yet, and there are no tuples built
into D.
