I want to read a file, put it into an array, make some search and

randomness in Associative Arrays?
ReadfileAndCopyContentIntoArray.d

int lineNumber = 0;
char[][int] fileInArray;

I have to ask because I don't know if this is similar to your true use
case or not -- but why would you use an AA when you have an ordered list
with keys that go from 0 to N? Why not just use an array?
As others have said, RedBlackTree can be used as an ordered map (though
this requires some definition of a mapping on top of it).
