#122967 - backwards
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Erik Malund said:
are you sure P2_4 is defined before the #define SW1 P2_4, C does not work 'backwards'


Andy Neil said:
Remember: the preprocessor knows nothing about 'C' syntax - it is purely a text substitution that happens (conceptually, at least) before the compiler ever sees the source text!


And that is exactly why in this case C 'does work backwards'.
