in thread Strange compile error?

I was talking about associativity (as in "right-to-left" operation). The table to which I referred lumps associativity and precedence together: there's not a lot I can do about that.

    But it doesn't matter which part of a statement is compiled first, be it by associativity or precedence or quantum flux.

    The docs are clear:

    The declared variable is not introduced (is not visible) until after the current statement.
