C++'s array bounds checking is there only if you use vector<>, not regular arrays.

And D's bounds checking is only there if you don't use pointers or @trusted.

fyi std::array also has bounds checking, you're not limited to vector<> to have that.

D will give you compilation errors in @safe mode if you try to index off of a pointer.
