Hi all,
The subject line is TRUE.
Today I accidentally typed rnorm(!0).
My old eyes took a minute to focus clearly enough to see what I really typed and
why I got '!0' random numbers instead of '10' random normal numbers.
If the subject line is disturbing, be assured that this is TRUE:
!0^2 == !0 * !0 # ;-)
Anyway, I hope the hands who have been around long enough to know FAQ 7.31 by
heart and know why precedence of operators matters have a laugh.
Best,
Chuck
