import std.range;
import std.algorithm;
import std.array;
auto sortedStrings = myAssocArray
.byKeyValue
.filter!(kvp => !kvp.value) // kvp = key value pair
.map!(kvp => kvp.key) // map to the key strings
.array // form a sortable array
.sort; // sort it
Note the nice formatting to show how the range pipeline goes, and allows
for comments explaining each step.
