Calc

Calculating values (+calc)

Sometimes a data type is set to someType +calc. The +calc indicates that the value is calculated with +-/\* operators. Be aware that the operators have no "weight". The calculation is done from left to right instead of order of operations (multiplication and division before addition and subtraction).

How value is calculated

45 + 34 * 2 = 158
(which is the same as this in ordinary arithmetic: (45+34)*2=158)
