White space is useful for readability but is not required.
x = (a + b) * (a + 2*b) * (a+3*b); // space is optional
Two operator attributes affect the order of evaluation: operator precedence level (higher level operators are performed first), and operator associativity (operators of the same precedence are evaluated either from left to right or from right to ...
