It's not an expression, it's an assignment.
It assigns a string to the variable exp.
However, the math displayed in the string is somewhat strange:
- b1 NE 0 will always give a byte result, so there is no need for the byte function
- the *1 will convert the result to an integer or long (depending on the compiler options)
