691 PointsConfusion on Operator Precedence
Hello,
I ran into some confusion during the quiz on this video. With operator precedence it states that addition and subtraction would happen after the other operators. To break it down Pasan put parenthesis around the operators that would happen first. In the code challenge there was a question that had addition in parenthesis. Is this a way of overriding operator precedence?

6,034 PointsThat is correct. But it doesn't exactly"override" the precedence. Rather, the parenthesis have a higher precedence themselves, so the operations in the parenthesis should happen first.
