*, / and % all have the same precedence.  I guess the reasoning is
that / is (approximately) the inverse of * and % is "remainder after
/".



Hello John.

Ok.   I got steamed too quickly.

When you're using the interactive interpreter, you need to end a
function definition with an extra carriage return.
(at least, that's the way it works in the console version)



******************************


I believe you.   However,  when I added extra carriage returns to the script
file
between the function subroutines,  it made no difference.

Why?    Is it because the windows copy and paste throws away the extra
carriage returns?


I pasted the function  subroutines, one at a time, into the shell, and
entered the carriage return 
directly into the shell between copies, and it worked.

However, I have a debugging dilemma.

I made changes to one of the function subroutines, and recopied that
function to the shell
and I put print statements in the new version of the function subroutine.

None of the new print statements are printing.

It's as if the old version is still runing.

Is there anything short of closing the shell and re-opening it that I can do to fix this?
