iirc php is the only (popular) language with messed up ternary-if associativity, it works as you'd expect pretty much everywhere else

- stevenhilder 7y agoI believe you're correct; I'm not aware of any other language with a left-associative ternary. This will be deprecated as of PHP 7.4[0], and will cause a compile error in PHP 8.0. However, instead of switching straight to right-associativity, PHP will require explicit parentheses to disambiguate nested ternaries.
