    x <- -42
    x^2.3
    ==> NaN ("not a number")

    Now try this:
    -42^2.3
    ==> -5413.441

  2. A quotation from Austin O'Malley

    The weaker the man in authority, layman or cleric, the stronger his insistence that all his privileges be acknowledged.

    Austin O'Malley (1858-1932) American ophthalmologist, professor of literature, aphorist
    Keystones of Thought (1914)

    The not operator has higher precedence than and, so that will evaluate to True when Encryption.AES is false-ish and 'FLAG' is in the stream, and False otherwise.

    It's easier to see if you simplify:

    >>> not True and True
    False
    >>> not False and True
    True
