Subject: Re: [Caml-list] Associativity precedence for the user-defined operator.

In general, the associativity and precedence of an operator (unless
you go out to camlp4 or something) is based on the operator's first
character. For example +/ would act like +, */ would act like *, and
so on. For this reason, you'll often see O'Caml operators defined as
"basic operator followed by some strange symbol." In your add_num
case, +/ and friends would probably mesh well. Then you also get the
expected interaction when mixing +/ and */.
John.
