Well, we can always make a mess if we want to, like this classical (?) example in C: a=b+++++c which makes a bit more sense with a few spaces: a=b++ + ++c Or with parentheses: a=(b++)+(++c) Or this way: a=++c+b++ For you who are not familiar with C, C++ or similar, the ”++” operator means that the variable is incremented, ”--” means the opposite of course. If it precedes the variable it means that the incrementing is performed before the expression is calculated, otherwise that the incrementing happens afterwards.
