but if you omit the space between - and 3 the old compiler understands it too, hence its just a convenience thing that cant lead to misunderstandings, or?
btw opal also understands this:
-        3@2. --> (-3@2)
i mean, its obvious nevertheless that "-" is not a method like negated, but part of a number and opal is just a bit more flexible with number formatting.

Old compiler refuses to accept this code:

Opal compiler does just fine:

- 4 @ -5 -> (-4@ -5)

who is right?
