[QUOTE="Crankshaft, post: 879191, member: 941"] Came across this on the net: "The 'answer' is that this expression is grammatically incorrect and inherently ambiguous. Yes, some hypothetical "order of precedence" of the mathematical operations might be invoked, but I am not sure that, in the mathematical universe, there is uniform agreement as to what that order might be." Getting off my high horse for now. [/QUOTE]
