The D programming language is an object-oriented, imperative, multi-paradigm system programming language created by Walter Bright of Digital Mars and released in 2001. Bright was joined in the design and development effort in 2007 by Andrei Alexandrescu. Though it originated as a re-engineering of C++, D is a distinct language, having redesigned some core C++ features while also taking inspiration from other languages, notably Java, Python, Ruby, C#, and Eiffel.

Example from Compiler Explorer:

// Type your code here, or load an example.
int square(int num) {
    return num * num;
}

Example from Riju:

import std.stdio;

void main()
{
    writeln("Hello, world!");
}

Example from hello-world:

#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
   printf("Hello World");
   return 0;
}

Example from the Hello World Collection:

// Hello World in D

import std.stdio;

void main()
{
   writefln("Hello World!");
}

Example from Linguist:

unittest
{
}

Example from Wikipedia:

1 import std.stdio, std.algorithm, std.range, std.string;
 2 
 3 void main()
 4 {
 5     dstring[][dstring] signs2words;
 6 
 7     foreach(dchar[] w; lines(File("words.txt")))
 8     {
 9         w = w.chomp().toLower();
10         immutable key = w.dup.sort().release().idup;
11         signs2words[key] ~= w.idup;
12     }
13 
14     foreach(words; signs2words)
15         if(words.length > 1)
16             writefln(words.join(" "));
