let: let arg [arg ...]
    Evaluate arithmetic expressions.

    Evaluate each ARG as an arithmetic expression.  Evaluation is done in
    fixed-width integers with no check for overflow, though division by 0
    is trapped and flagged as an error.  The following list of operators is
    grouped into levels of equal-precedence operators.  The levels are listed
    in order of decreasing precedence.

        id++, id--      variable post-increment, post-decrement
        ++id, --id      variable pre-increment, pre-decrement
        -, +            unary minus, plus
        !, ~            logical and bitwise negation
        **              exponentiation
        *, /, %         multiplication, division, remainder
        +, -            addition, subtraction
        <<, >>          left and right bitwise shifts
        <=, >=, <, >    comparison
        ==, !=          equality, inequality
        &               bitwise AND
        ^               bitwise XOR
        |               bitwise OR
        &&              logical AND
        ||              logical OR
        expr ? expr : expr
                        conditional operator
        =, *=, /=, %=,
        +=, -=, <<=, >>=,
        &=, ^=, |=      assignment

    Shell variables are allowed as operands.  The name of the variable
    is replaced by its value (coerced to a fixed-width integer) within
    an expression.  The variable need not have its integer attribute
    turned on to be used in an expression.

    Operators are evaluated in order of precedence.  Sub-expressions in
    parentheses are evaluated first and may override the precedence
    rules above.

    Exit Status:
    If the last ARG evaluates to 0, let returns 1; let returns 0 otherwise.
