The following examples illustrate the successive steps
in
the
evaluation of four arith-
metic expressions according
to
the rules just described.
In
each expression,
the
vari-
ables A,
B,
and C have been assigned the integer values 4, 6, and 2, respectively.

(-At2)+B/C*2.5
-At(2+B/C)*2.5
-At((2+B)/C)*2.5

A character expression
is
a character constant, a character variable, a single element
of
a character array,
or
a substring (STR) function. The only operators ever asso-
ciated with character expressions are the relational operators described next. The
following are examples
of
valid character expressions:
D$(4)
A$
STR(A$,1,3)=B$
