Precedences of Operations
This section provides the order of precedence for operations commonly used in VBScript. Operations in a complex expression must be evaluated according to the order of operation precedence.
In the previous section, we learned that operations in a complex expression must be evaluated according to the order of operation precedence. The following table shows you the relative order of precedence for some commonly used operations:
Precedence Operations Notes 12 (...) Operation group 11 ^ Exponentiation 10 - Unary negation 9 * / \ Mod Multiplication, Division, ... 8 + - Addition and Subtraction 7 & + String concatenation 6 = <> < > <= >= Comparisons 5 Not Logical negation 4 And Logical conjunction 3 Or Logical disjunction 2 Xor Logical exclusion 1 Eqv Logical equivalence 0 Imp Logical implication
Remember that:
See the next section for examples of expressions and evaluation orders.
