Re: Silly operator precedence bug

Scout,

Consider these lines of code:


if not Column in [4..6] then
Column := 4;

My intention was that if the Column variable held either 9 or 2 before
this statement, it would end up containing 4 afterwards.

It didn't.

I can see why it didn't now.

I feel silly.

indeed. happened to me every time. wouldn't it be nice if you could write:

if Column not in [4..6] then

to avoid the whole thing?
