Re: [Dev-C++] help files and Operator Precedence

[Eric <eri...@cl...>]

OK

It is just that I don't do C++ full time nor do I programming micro-controller with C full time, A
employment option in ether direction would be great !!! :)

This is why I have kept the C++ notes in folder and refer to them and upgrade them from time to time as
needed,

The only reason why I made a posting is so I could find (and others as well) the operator precedence
order in the help file if I need to and don't have access to my notes, I am sure you Per Westermark would
not need them but other people might find it useful and stop them posting to this group on a trivial
problem using operator precedence.

After all I did see a "Hello world" example in the help files briefly while looking for something else.

Also I do realize that operator precedence (and did while I was at school) that the operator precedence
does not change between local and global variables, it was (it the time) a reminder that in a function a
global variable would be ignored if there was a local variable defined in that function.

Knowing thee precendence rules are part of basic programming skills.

Anyway, there are _no_ precedence difference between auto and global
variables when evaluating an expression.

There is, of course, a difference in the time when the
constructors/destructors will be run for variables declared global, auto
or dyanmically allocated.
