Using std.algorithm.iteration to Calculate Hamming Distance

D already has a function to calculate the Levenshtein
distance[1]. I am trying to come up with a function to calculate
the Hamming distance[2] between two strings, `a` and `b`. So
far, this seems to work:
foreach (i, j; zip(a, b)) {
if (i != j)
++hammingDistance;
}
Is there a way to use any of the std.algorithm.iteration[3]
algorithms such as `filter` or `map` to do this as well?
