Does JSoup selector select right to left or left to right?

Looking at the Documentation on the website I see:

Elements resultLinks = doc.select("h3.r > a"); // direct a after h3

      

        
        
        
      

    

It seems to work from left to right, so it first selects each h3

and then selects the ones h3

that have after them a

.

Looking at the code seems to confirm this.
