Language basics : expressions

• Arithmetic expressions: made up of arithmetic operators such as +, - , * , / and %

• +, - , * , / are overloaded .

• Operator precedence : (*, /, %) and (+, -)

• Left associative : evaluation proceeds left to right in case all operators used in an expression are of equal precedence.

• Relational operators : == , <>, >= , <=, > , <

• Assignment operator = (lowest precedence), right associative

• Example: a = b = c = d++; How is this evaluated?
