There is the code, basically to my fledgling eyes this looks correct. But as you can see from running it, it doesn't work as intended.

Can anyone talk me through it? Its really boggling my mind!

The boolean operator (not b) is performed before the relational operater b = 1. Since b = 2, (not b) is false and 1 is true, so therefore (false = true) = false. Put parentheses around the relational operator (b = 1), since b does not equal 1 this become false. Therefore (not false) equals true.

Why not writing 'a<>1' there? Is there a difference?
