Interestingly (well, to me anyway), the D language also has a Perlish foreach (and foreach_reverse) loop that is distinct from its C-ish for-loop. The names for and foreach are not synonymous, however, as they are in Perl, perhaps thereby avoiding some confusion. In general, D, with its intimate embrace of associative arrays, foreach loops and a few other features, has for me an evocative resemblance to Perl — well, if you squint your eyes a bit and look at it from just the right angle.
