Call me biased, but every programming language I'm aware of that isn't related to Piet[1] or Befunge[2] reads from left to right, and both of those are gag options. Programming languages in general take their cue from English, so it doesn't seem that unreasonable to me to assume that programmers know enough English to assume left to right.
