- $\begingroup$ @Jens: I had seen the statement that compound operators cannot have custom precedence, but I wondered if an existing operator (plus, minus, times, etc) might retain its precedence if used with a subscript. I have experimented but am not very proficient at defining notations and so far can't get a subscripted operator to call a function at all, whereas I was able to get non-subscripted custom operators like !*! to do so. $\endgroup$Duns– Duns2015-02-15 15:21:15 +00:00Commented Feb 15, 2015 at 15:21
- 1$\begingroup$ @Duns I believe you are looking for this: (39703). I cannot recall with certainty what the precedence of the "new" operators is and I don't have time to experiment, but I think it tracks the "parent" operator. Please test that and let me know if it will suit your needs. $\endgroup$Mr.Wizard– Mr.Wizard2015-02-15 17:01:55 +00:00Commented Feb 15, 2015 at 17:01

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. list-manipulation), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
