 Precedence
 ----------
 
-For operators that are not keywords the precedence is determined by the
-following rules: 
+Unary operators always bind stronger than any binary 
+operator: ``$a + b`` is ``($a) + b`` and not ``$(a + b)``.
 
-If the operator ends with ``=`` and its relevant character is none of 
-``<``, ``>``, ``!``, ``=``, ``~``, ``?``, it is an *assignment operator* which
-has the lowest precedence.

-If the operator's relevant character is ``@`` it is a `sigil-like`:idx: 
+If an unary operator's relevant character is ``@`` it is a `sigil-like`:idx: 
 operator which binds stronger than a ``primarySuffix``: ``@x.abc`` is parsed
 as ``(@x).abc`` whereas ``$x.abc`` is parsed as ``$(x.abc)``.

 Otherwise precedence is determined by the relevant character.
