The parameter `int[] a...` is an an array of ints just like any 
other `int[]` in D. If you don't believe me, see for yourself 
here: https://run.dlang.io/is/IJdovg

I understand that the syntax does not align with your 
expectations. Instead of complaining about it, I would urge you 
to set your preconceptions aside and learn D with an open mind. 
You'll be less frustrated, more productive, and more successful.
