That's stylistically ugly but not hard to predict; at some point I had it beaten into my head that ternaries are always at the bottom of the single-character operator precedence stack (I really hope all languages stick to that). I'd expect most people to know this.

> z = a & b > c | d

That is harder to predict. I wouldn't expect most people to know this one without looking up a precedence list.

It gets better when you compile that C code as C++, as ?: has a different precedence level.
