I know i've been going a different route with the code since so i am not sure
where exactly it was, and can't duplicate the problem now.
However single-lining through it brings up a question of assumption. Aren't
array's (dynamic and otherwise) filled with 0's by default?
Str_BigNum add(in Str_BigNum rhs) {
Str_BigNum tmp;
char res[];
res.length = _result.length + 1;
res[1 .. $] = _result[];
//res[0] should be null, right??
_addsub!("+")(res, rhs._result);
tmp._result = res;
return tmp;
}
