I don't get what maths have to do with it. In maths a = b = 2 is the same as a = (b = 2), (a = b) = 2, (a = b = 2) or a = 2 = b. Clearly it doesn't apply here.

- kupiakos 10y agoIs surrounding an equality with parentheses in math something that is regularly done? When I see (a = b) in math, I don't think of it as "evaluating" to anything like 2+3 would.
- euyyn 10y agoIn math notation I would expect a = (b = c) to mean "a" is a boolean whose value is whether b equals c.
