Bison allows you to specify these choices with the operator precedence
declarations %left and %right. Each such declaration
contains a list of tokens, which are operators whose precedence and
associativity is being declared. The %left declaration makes all
those operators left-associative and the %right declaration makes
them right-associative. A third alternative is %nonassoc, which
declares that it is a syntax error to find the same operator twice "in a
row".
The relative precedence of different operators is controlled by the
order in which they are declared. The first %left or
%right declaration in the file declares the operators whose
precedence is lowest, the next such declaration declares the operators
whose precedence is a little higher, and so on.
