In-Reply-To: <87vc8gmk29.fsf@kuiper.lan.informatimago.com> (Pascal J. Bourguignon's message of "Mon, 25 Mar 2013 00:53:18 +0100")

For equality comparisons, there's another reason to do "2 == x" rather
than "x == 2", which is that if you happen to miswrite it as "2 = x", the
compiler will detect the error.
