D enums don't need to be ALL UPPERCASE :-)
int world[WORLDSIZE][WORLDSIZE];
Don't forget to compile with warnings active (it's a design
error of the D compiler to have them disabled by default).
foreach(i; 0..INITIALPOP){
It's less bug-prone to make that index immutable:
foreach(immutable i; 0 .. initialPop) {
Bye,

Thanks for the comments. The all-caps enums is just habit. I
don't get any warnings using the dmd -w switch, I take it you
mean use int[size][size] var instead?
Regarding the immutable loop variable, I've conditioned myself
never to interfere with loop control values - it gives me the
same bad feeling as goto/continue (and to a lesser extent
'break').
