The TDPL has a list of expressions in decreasing precedence
on pages 61-63. Some of these operators, like <> or ^^= are
not listed there.
Some guys want to deprecate <>, but I think it is actually quite nice.
^^ and ^^= were added after TDPL was released afaik.
Is there a difference between != and <> ?
Yes, != gives true when at least one of the arguments is NAN, while <>
gives false if at least one of the arguments is NAN.
!= means not equal.
<> means ordered, but not equal.
There is also <>=, which just means ordered, etc.
Why is the "goesto" operator listed twice? Is that accidental?
That is intentional. It binds stronger to the left than to the right,
for example:
x+x=>x+x
will be parsed as:
x+(x=>(x+x))
(It could be argued that => is not a proper 'operator', but an operator
precedence parser can be slightly more efficient if it is treated as one.)
