       Junior programmer: knows only the most basic operator precedence rulesSenior programmer: knows the entire precedence table in the language spec by heartPrincipal programmer: if you need to know anything beyond "multiply over addition" to understand the code, it's garbage and needs to be more readable

       @azonenberg That is also my wife, a math PhD, talking about order of operation in math in general for any purpose, not just programming.Every time one of those order-of-operation "math quizzes" goes viral, she gets to give this speech many times.

       @azonenberg YES. Compiler exists for a reason, you do not pay for declaring final variables, name your clauses so we know what the hell the idea was. Also all complex expressions are wrong. Always. This is where bugs live.
