/
Division
6 / 3 = 2
%
Modulo

1 + 2 * 3 = 1 + (2 * 3) = 7
(1 + 2) * 3 = 9
  • Ninox removes
    • superfluous parentheses—following the precedence rule "first the division, then the addition")—and
    • superfluous white spaces.
  • However, Ninox also adds white spaces where they are deemed useful, e.g., for better readability).
