Operator precedence

I've been looking at the documentation provided on iRule operators in the wiki, and the operator precedence for the F5-added operators is not listed. Is this information available anywhere?

For clarity's sake, I mean the following operators from the aforementioned link:

Operand Description

 

contains Tests if one string contains another string

 

ends_with Tests if one string ends with another string

 

matches_glob Implement glob style matching within a comparison

 

matches_regex Tests if one string matches a regular expression

 

The other operators, as hoolio pointed out, map to existing TCL operators, which are sorted in order of precedence.
