There are two issues there; operator precedence and booleans 
(_win[0] == '@') being a valid operands to +.
If someone is too stupid to learn how precedence works, they 
should consider a different career instead of blaming others.
OTOH, booleans converting to numbers is a very questionable 
feature. I certainly have never seen any good use for it. This is 
just an unfortunate legacy of C, which didn't even have booleans 
for a long time.
