Function std.range.primitives.popFront

Implements the range interface primitive popFront for built-in arrays. Due to the fact that nonmember functions can be called with the first argument using the dot notation, array.popFront is equivalent to popFront(array). For narrow strings, popFront automatically advances to the next code point.

void popFront(T) (
  scope ref inout(T)[] a
) pure nothrow @nogc @safe
if (!isNarrowString!(T[]) && !is(T[] == void[]));

void popFront(C) (
  scope ref inout(C)[] str
) pure nothrow @trusted
if (isNarrowString!(C[]));

Example

auto a = [ 1, 2, 3 ];
a.popFront();
writeln(a); // [2, 3]
