Operator precedence: AND and OR
« Thread started on: Nov 26th, 2013, 08:34am »
Liberty BASIC handles expressions which contain both AND and OR operators in a non-standard way. This article at the LB Bug Tracker Wiki explains the issue:
To date, LBB has not attempted to emulate this behaviour but instead evaluates AND before OR, as in most other programming languages. I had hoped that it would be rare for this incompatibility to be important, but I have recently encountered a large program which fails for this reason.
I therefore propose to modify LBB so that it evaluates AND and OR with equal priority (left-to-right) as LB does. I realise that this may be controversial, but I find it difficult to justify emulating the non-standard behaviour of INT but not the non-standard behaviour of AND/OR.
