* masak submits rakudobug
<diakopter> I don't get that one
<diakopter> it's not fully left-associative nor fully right-associative
<masak> me neither. kudos to whoever gets it.
<masak> hey, look at this!
<frettled> hmm?
<masak> rakudo: .say for 1/7*7, 1/7/7*7, 1/7/7/7*7, 1/7/7/7/7*7

<masak> that explains it, I think.
<masak> the 7's cancel each other out.
<diakopter> right
<diakopter> but how
<masak> diakopter: it's as if / had higher prec than *
<diakopter> they would cancel each other out if it were right-associative
<diakopter> if "/" were right-assoc I mean
<masak> maybe it is.
<masak> well, something's wrong, at least.
