Description adela.vais99 2020-09-09 12:31:35 UTC 
I was working with an input range and I would find it useful to be able to do something like:

  int ctr = 0;
  val = input.parse!int(ctr);

and then use ctr for location tracking purposes.

After analysing the source code, I see that there is already an overload that receives as a second parameter an integer, so my example above is impossible.

It was only an example, the problem is that parse doesn't report the number of characters consumed, and it doesn't really matter the way I receive this information.
