Description
By way of a question on the. XML.com slack, on the page about otherwise we find:
The precedence of the operator is greater than arithmetic operators (so $n div $m otherwise 1 means $n div ($m otherwise 1)), but less than the "union" operator (so a/b/c otherwise 0 means (a/b/c) otherwise 0).
But there isn't an obvious use of the union operator there. Was that meant to be (a|b|c) otherwise 0
?
