That's the first I've heard of "BODMAS" (!), but it appears to match how
VBScript, JScript et al do it any way. E.g.:

2 + 3 * 4 =3D 14
(2 + 3) * 4 =3D 20

I have an excuse for my late posting BTW! Just back from seeing
'Cloverfield' .. don't let the excessive hype put you off - it's great
first-person stuff, excellent motion-tracked SFX, plenty of seat rocking
thrills!=20

The cast are excessively good-looking, but at least that means we're
introduced to Odette Yustman's charms! =20

Loved first-person shots of clambering around a Twin Towers-like =
building on
the brink of collapse, with the floors precariously tilted at 45 degrees =
-
reminded me of the scary climb up the dome tower in St. Peter's of Rome.
