Operator Precedence
/**
* Operator Precedence
*
* If you don't direction state the order in which an
* expression is evaluated, it is decided by the operator
* precedence. For example, in the expression 4+2*8, the
* 2 will first be multiplied by 8 and then the result will
* be added to 4. This is because multiplication has a higher
* precedence than addition. To avoid ambiguity in reading
* the program, it is recommended to write the expression as
* 4+(2*8). The order of evaluation can be controlled through
* adding parenthesis in the code.
*/
// The highest precedence is at the top of the list and
// the lowest is at the bottom.
// Multiplicative: * / %
// Additive: + -
// Relational: < > <= >=
// Equality: == !=
// Logical AND: &&
// Logical OR: ||
// Assignment: = += -= *= /= %=
