D's support for ranges is probably the single most important 
reason why I choose to use D. (lot's of other very good reasons 
too, but not as important as ranges).

When I look at other languages now, the first thing I want to 
know is, does it have integral support for ranges??

"ranges .. improve safety when compared with iterators because 
they never allow invalid pairs of iterators."
