Operator Precedence in Java

Java operators have precedence levels that determine the order of operations. Higher precedence operators are evaluated before those with lower precedence. The precedence levels, from highest to lowest, are: [], ., ++, --, unary + and -, ~, !, *, /, %, +, -, <<, >>, >>>, <, <=, >, >=, instanceof, ==, !=, &, ^, |, &&, ||, ?, :, =, *=, /=, +=, -=, %=, <<=, >>=, >>>=, &=, ^=, |=. Parentheses can be used to explicitly specify evaluation order when operator precedence is unclear.
