When in doubt shroud your spout. Or just use parentheses!

1 << 2 + 3 << 4

Bitwise operations always first, what's the problem?

<< has the lowest priority, and the rest is left to right, so I'd say 1<<5<<4 == 1<<9 == 256. But yeah, parenthesis would help. It would make sense that bitwise operation would had high priority, a left shift being a multiplication by a power of two, but fuck logic so no. Probably in order to force people to use parenthesis.

@rostopira nope, at least not in c nor java

@CptFox I think @rostopira is being sarcastic

@voiid @CptFox I wasn't sarcastic, I'm drunk xD Sorry guys, my fault (Java guy BTW)

@rostopira so shrouding your spout is better after all😴

Having this comes in handy sometimes http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/...

But yeah, parenthesis > relying on precedence

@rostopira that’s not true in Java either lol

@Krokoklemme that made me think, --a and -a have the same precedence, so is ---3 equal to -(--3)=-2 or --(-3)=-4 ?

@CptFox that's a very good question. I could imagine it to be UB
