note 44988 deleted from language.operators by danbrown

Note Submitter: ---- I think warhog's note about the differing precedence between && / AND and || / OR is worth repeating. Since && and || evaluate before the assignment operator (=) while AND and OR evaluate after it, you can get COMPLETELY different results if you don't fully parenthesise. I cannot imagine when it would ever be important that those two pairs have differing precedence, but they do. And I just spent two hours discovering that the hard way because I broke my career-long rule: *Always fully parenthesise!*
