Because after the first two numbers, there is a string and everything is evaluated as string and every number after the quotes is concatenated.

int: 1+1 = 2 String: 2+"1+1" = "21+1" String: "21+1"+1 = "21+11" String: "21+11"+1 = "21+111"

No, but the program didn't recognize the assignment as string until you wrote +"" then it started behaving like a string the same as if you will use the () as I hava already said the behavior will be like int because it doesn't care about the part outside

That is, despite the fact that this is String, the first two numbers are perceived as int?

Because the "+" operator in the quoted string acts as a string delimiter operator :-) (two strings are concatenated)

In addition to TheWh¡teCat you can add () on the last two digits and see that they will evaluate to 2
