Hi eyepopslikeamosquito,

Ok, "everywhere" may be a bit of an exaggeration :-) But I do still think that parens are easier to learn and remember than the precedence table, especially across multiple languages. That doesn't exclude learning precedence, just that learning proper use of parens could be the first step, followed by learning when they don't need to be applied. And I was speaking in the context of Argel's situation, "users are not programmers and most do not even write scripts", where my priority would be on getting the users writing working code, style comes after.

Regards,
-- Hauke D
