" s=p=$1 OFS $2 is the same as s=p=$1 OFS $2" really ??? Smilie

With the s=p=$1 i was just wondering if the affectation sequence was processed from right to left order but ok, this is the case so it just equivalent to p=$1 ; s=p so at the end s and p have the same value which in fact quite intuitive regarding to the notation, but i wasn't sure.

Because if the affectation would have been processed from left to right , this would have meant a rotation so that it could have been used for shifting field to the left.

But , ok i got it now ... Thx
