Not sure if this has been discussed before:
https://tour.dlang.org/tour/en/basics/foreach
```
foreach (i, e; [4, 5, 6]) {
writeln(i, ":", e);
}
// 0:4 1:5 2:6
```
so what if I want the loop index counter when I want to loop n
times with the .. syntax, I tried:
```
foreach (i, e; 5 .. 10) {
writeln(i, ":", e);
}
```
right now when I tried it, got syntax error:
onlineapp.d(4): Error: found `..` when expecting `)`
onlineapp.d(4): Error: found `)` when expecting `;` following
statement
Yes, there are a number of manual work-around, but I think the
this 2nd foreach loop should be as valid as the 1st one on
arrays, so the language behavior is more consistent.
Thoughts?
