Hi,

It seems that there is precedence of the operations in [[. For
example, && is of a higher precedence than ||. I don't find where it
is documented in the man page. Could anybody show me? Thanks.

I see ARITHMETIC EVALUATION discusses precedence. But I don't think it
is for [[.

$ ./main.sh
for x1 in '' x
do
    for x2 in '' x
    do
        for x3 in '' x
        do
            echo "==> $x1, $x2, $x3 <=="
            [[ $x1 || $x2 && $x3 ]]
             echo $?
            [[ $x1 || ($x2 && $x3) ]]
             echo $?
            [[ ($x1 || $x2) && $x3 ]]
         echo $?
        done
    done
done

Precedence is basically the same as for arithmetic, && higher than ||
higher than equality and inequality, but you're right that it isn't
explicitly documented in the case of [[.
