6 If you are referring to "operator associativity" - it is how a language determines how operators of the same precedence are grouped in the absence of parentheses. For example, the + and - operators in C-based languages have the same precedence.
This example illustrates the use of the LAG= option to indicate nonstandard precedence relationships between activities. Consider the widget manufacturing project described in the earlier examples.
Questions If my belief that functions are always evaluated from left-to-right is wrong, what does the table referring to function precedence and associativity really mean? Who defines operator precedence and associativity if it's not ANSI? If it is ANSI who makes the definition, why is little mentioned about operator precedence and associativity?
This is unlike all of the standard arithmetic operators, as they have higher precedence than the comparison operators, so some_num + 5 == 5 will evaluate as we expect. Why is this? It seems very counterintuitive that the standard arithmetic operators have a much higher precedence than the bitwise arithmetic operators.
Why do bit operators have such low precedence in C and C++?
This confuses the mathematician in me: in arithmetic, we would say it has precedence over arithmetic operators. On its right, the ** operator does not have precedence over arithmetic operations, but it has on its left...
We get into unnecessary coding arguments at my work all-the-time. Today I asked if conditional AND (&&) or OR (||) had higher precedence. One of my coworkers insisted that they had the same
And has precedence over Or, so, even if a <=> a1 Or a2
