I'm trying to do the following:
module myModule;
int calculate(T)(int a, int b) if(T == "add") {
   return a + b;
}
int calculate(T)(int a, int b) if(T == "subtract) {
   return a - b;
}
But when I try to run the following code, I get "template myModule.calculate"
does not match any function template declaration":
void main() {
   int a = 10;
   int b = 20;
   std.stdio.writeln(calculate!("add")(a, b));
   std.stdio.writeln(calculate!("subtract")(a, b));
}
Is there any way to check if the given template argument is "add" or
"subtract"? I also tried:
int calculate(string T)(int a, int b) if(T == "add") {
   return a + b;
}
int calculate(string T)(int a, int b) if(T == "subtract) {
   return a - b;
}
... without any success (I'll get an instantiation error).
