||||
| right-to-left associativity | the evaluation of an expression that parses from the right to the left
🗑
|
||||
| side effect | a change in a variable that results from the evaluation of an expression; any input/output performed by a called function
🗑
|
||||
| unary expression | an expression that consists of one operator and one operand

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
