Description

From the online docs of std.conv.parse:


Target parse(Target, Source)(ref Source s, dchar lbracket = '[', dchar rbracket = ']', dchar comma = ',');
Target parse(Target, Source)(ref Source s, dchar lbracket = '[', dchar rbracket = ']', dchar comma = ',');
    Parses an array from a string given the left bracket (default '['), right bracket (default ']'), and element seprator (by default ',').

Target parse(Target, Source)(ref Source s, dchar lbracket = '[', dchar rbracket = ']', dchar keyval = ':', dchar comma = ',');
    Parses an associative array from a string given the left bracket (default '['), right bracket (default ']'), key-value separator (default ':'), and element seprator (by default ',').


If the lbracket and rbracket arguments become strings, no brackets can be expressed with empty strings.
