Please read carefully before addressing something that has been explained
in the original posting.  The delimitors are optional and should be used
only when you think they may help your reading of the program.  Please
read the posting again, compare the practical (2nd) example with the 1st
example.

The suggestion that I've made is similar to using redundent () in arithmetic 
expression.  e.g.  A = (B*C) + D;

If you think you need to do something as in your example, it is all up to
you.  I'll bet you'd be the only one in this world to do so.
