Standard Library Overview

Everything lives under the global std object. The namespace is flat:
std.string, std.sort, std.math are direct members of std (no
std.algo or std.os nesting); a few OS helpers sit directly on std too
(see std.os). All of it is restricted (read-only). Call everything
with dot — colon is only for pipes on values (see
Pipes).
