What is the operator precedence of C# null-coalescing (??) operator?

Question

I\'ve just tried the following, the idea being to concatenate the two strings, substituting an empty string for nulls.

string a=\"Hello\";
string b=\" World\         


        

Answer 1

The operator precedence is documented on MSDN.

However the precedence on MSDN contradicts the precedence in both the downloadable C# spec also from Microsoft, and the spec on ECMA. Which is a little odd.

Irrespective, as Jon Skeet said in his response, best not to rely on precedence of operators, but to be explicit through use of brackets.
