	Ah... That's covered under "operator precedence" and not the
short-circuit evaluation rule.

	Boolean "and" and "or" tend to come last in the parsing (bitwise &
and ^ come earlier, as I recall)

{Python 2.x}
>>> 5 & 2
0
>>> 5 ^ 2
7
>>> 5 and 2 
2
>>> 5 or 2
5
>>> 
>>> 5 & 2 and 5 ^ 2
0
>>> 5 & 2 or 5 ^ 2
7
>>> 5 ^ 2 and 5 & 2
0
>>> 5 ^ 2 or 5 & 2
7
>>> 
>>> 5 ^ (2 or 5) & 2
7
>>> 5 ^ (2 and 5) & 2
5
>>> 5 & (2 and 5) ^ 2
7
>>> 5 & (2 or 5) ^ 2
2
>>>
