[!important] Operator Precedence
Python follows standard math precedence:

1. ** (exponentiation)
2. *, /, //, % (multiplication/division)
3. +, - (addition/subtraction)
   Operations are evaluated left to right at each level.
   Use parentheses () to override precedence and clarify expressions.

[!example] Precedence in Practice

2 + 3 * 4     # 14
(2 + 3) * 4   # 20
