[REBOL] Re: The evaluation semantics
From: lmecir:mbox:vol:cz at: 3-Sep-2005 20:07
I was curious what is a more expected precedence for unbiased people,
and it looks, that the expression:
abs -4 + -5
is rather expected to yield -1 than 9.
Moreover, the evaluation order in Rebol can be called exception-based,
because in case:
abs -4 + -5
the operator + takes precedence, while in case
-4 + abs -5
the function ABS is evaluated as first. These aren't all the evaluation
exceptions in Rebol, the quantity of evaluation exceptions is quite high.
