In Miranda, all operators (except for ++ -- ˆ and :, as will be seen in Chapter 3) associate to the left.[/quote]
Then 2 examples are given! I get this first one:
(4.0 / 5.0 * 6.0) is interpreted as ((4.0 / 5.0) * 6.0)
\_first_/
This one I don't get
(4.0 / 5.0 / 6.0 / 7.0) is interpreted as ((4.0 / 5.0) / 6.0) / 7.0)
Should there not be another parenthesis at the beginning? Like:
(((4.0 / 5.0) / 6.0) / 7.0)
to make sense of Miranda's interpretation?
