He's not kidding, C precedence rules are weird. Even D. Ritchie thinks so. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_operations#Programming...

Oh, and it isn't strange to grok FP bypassing C altogether.

Of course he's kidding! I refuse to believe that wasn't some tongue-in-cheek statement. For fluid dynamics, all we are talking about is addition and multiplication, and the precedence rules for these operations are what you would expect them to be.
