Is still there, I this thread is dropped right now, I'll be just happy =)

But since this doesn't look like it's going away, I'll try to push in the
direction that I find less ugly.

I think changing !( for .( is plain dumb. If a change will be introduced,
I hope it really make a difference.

What I liked about downs idea was the hidden idea of improving D's tuple
support ;)

array = map with sqrt(array) looks just right! Come on!

And I don't know what this should mean anyways so I can't pick a good name
to make it clear with "with" =):
inPlace.(writeln)(array);
