groovy> println (a as int) + (b as int)
Cannot invoke method plus() on null object
That happened because println is nothing special, just a method call. So it has a higher priority than the plus, i.e.
println((a as int) + (b as int))
works. If you are not sure about operator preferences, you can always use paranthesis.

And you criticized ruby
You decided to put a bit of exotism in your work?

Thanks, nice to know that println isn't handled separately. So now the question is, from a grammar point of view, does "println((a as int) + (b as int))" mean:
- println called with (a as int) + (b as int) as a parameter and the optionnal parenthesis used
or
- println called with ((a as int) + (b as int)) with the optionnal parenthesis left off?
"If you are not sure about operator preferences, you can always use paranthesis."
I know my operator preferences, I didn't know that Groovy chose the path of C# ambiguation.
