>                 Key: JEXL-208
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JEXL-208
>             Project: Commons JEXL
>          Issue Type: Bug
>         Environment: (Chrome MacOSX)
>            Reporter: Joe Tom
>            Priority: Trivial
>
> Noticed on https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-jexl/reference/syntax.html that there are two operands that are defined then in the examples reversed.
> Starts With=^
> The syntactically CSS3 inspired =^ operator is a short-hand for the 'startsWith' method. For example, "abcdef" ^= "abc" returns true. Note that through duck-typing, user classes exposing a public 'startsWith' method will allow their instances to behave has left-hand-size operands of this operator.
> AND
> Not Starts With!^
> This is the negation of the 'starts with' operator. a ^! "abc" is equivalent to !(a ^= "abc")
