That’s some awful impressive goalpost shifting. Gold medal mental gymnastics winner.
And here you are, still unable to explain why prefix and postfix notation don’t have an operator precedence. I’m still waiting.
I already told you 3 times they obey the same rules
They literally don’t, and I defy you to show me a single source that tells you that prefix or postfix notation use PEDMAS. I’ll even take Quora answers.
Heck, I’ll even take a reputable source talking about prefix/postfix that doesnt bring up how order of operations isn’t required for those notations.
Nope. Doesn’t say that anywhere. Go ahead and screenshot the part which you think says that. I’ll wait
Right here:
Infix notation needs extra information to make the order of evaluation of the operators clear:
rules built into the language about operator precedence and associativity
Which you attempt to retort with
BTW this is completely wrong…
But then you go on to say something to the effect of “anyone who knows the rules can the extra information”. Which is both unsubstantiated given the long history of not having PEDMAS, but also kind of a nothingburger.
Doesn’t say that either. 🙄 Again, provide a screenshot of where you think it says that
It’s literally the whole thing. Did you notice how they never discuss the need for operator precedence, or use operator precedence?
Build for me a prefix or postfix equation that you think is changed by adding parentheses (eg overriding the natural order of operations), and then go ahead and find a prefix or postfix calculator and show me the results of removing those parentheses.
If you read the rules for those notations, you’ll see pretty clearly that operator precedence is purely positional, and has nothing to do with which operator it is.
Note that I always cite Maths textbooks
No, you’ve show a screenshot from a random PDF. What math textbook and what edition is it?
The fact you think that factorization has to do with order of operations is shocking.
Yes the multiplication is done first, but not because PEDMAS. The law is about converting between a sum of a common product and a product of sums. No matter how you write them, it will always be about those things, so the multiplication always happens first. It doesn’t depend on PEDMAS because without PEDMAS you’d simply write the equation differently and factorization would still work.
It’s crazy that you’re not able to distinguish between mathematical concepts and the notation we use to describe them.
But putting that aside, that’s not a proof of PEDMAS.
If PEDMAS is an actual law, then there will be a formal proof or theorem about it. There are proofs for 1+1, if PEDMAS is a law then there will be an actual proof specifically about it. Not just some law and then you claim it follows that PEDMAS is true, an actual proof or theorem, or an textbook snippet explain how it is an unprovable statement.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Says person refusing to acknowledge that it’s in textbooks the difference between conventions and rules 🤣🤣🤣
Gold medal mental gymnastics winner
Yep, I know you are. That’s why you had to post known to be wrong blogs, because you couldn’t find any textbooks that agree with you 🤣🤣🤣
And here you are, still unable to explain why prefix and postfix notation don’t have an operator precedence.
Speaking of goalpost shifting - what happened to they don’t have rules?? THAT was your point before, and now you have moved the goalposts when I pointed out that the blog was wrong 🤣🤣🤣
I’m still waiting
says person who has still not posted any textbook at all with anything at all that agrees with them, to someone who has posted multiple textbooks that prove you are wrong, and now you are deflecting 🤣🤣🤣🤣
They literally don’t
they literally *do., That’s why the rules get mentioned once at the start of the blog - it’s the same rules duuuhhh!!! 🤣🤣🤣
I defy you to show me a single source that tells you that prefix or postfix notation use PEDMAS.
PEMDAS isn’t the rules, it’s a convention
I’ll even take Quora answers
I won’t take anything but textbooks, and you’ve still come up with none
I’ll even take a reputable source talking about prefix/postfix that doesnt bring up how order of operations isn’t required for those notations.
That’s exactly what the blog you posted does. I knew you hadn’t read it! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! 🤣🤣🤣 I’ll take that as an admission of being wrong then
No, you’ve show a screenshot from a random PDF
of a Maths textbook, with the name of the textbook in the top left, and the page number also in the top left. 🤣🤣🤣
Infix notation needs extra information to make the order of evaluation of the operators clear:
rules built into the language about operator precedence and associativity
Yep, says nothing about operator precedence being tied to the notation, exactly as I just said, so that’s a fail from you then
But then you go on to say something to the effect of “anyone who knows the rules can the extra information”
derive the rules is what I said liar. The only thing you need to know is the definition of the operators, everything else follows logically from there.
Which is both unsubstantiated given the long history of not having PEDMAS
The order of operations rules are way older than PEMDAS. It even says it in one of the blogs you posted that PEMDAS is quite recent, again showing you didn’t actually read any of it. 🙄
No, you’ve show a screenshot from a random PDF
Nothing random about it. The name of the textbook is in the top left. Go ahead and search for it and let me know what you find. I’ll wait 🤣🤣🤣
What math textbook and what edition is it?
So, you’re telling me you don’t know how to look at the name of the PDF and search for it?? 🤣🤣🤣 I can tell you now it’s the #1 hit on Google
The fact you think that factorization has to do with order of operations is shocking
says person revealing they don’t know anything about order of operations 🤣🤣🤣 Make sure you let all the textbook authors know as well 🤣🤣🤣
Yes the multiplication is done first
No, Brackets are done first.
The law is about converting between a sum of a common product and a product of sums
Nope. That’s the Distributive Property, and yes indeed, the Property has nothing to do with order of operations, but the Distributive Law has everything to do with order of operations.
No matter how you write them, it will always be about those things,
The Property will, the Law isn’t
so the multiplication always happens first.
No, Brackets are always done first
It’s crazy that you’re not able to distinguish between mathematical concepts and the notation we use to describe them
says person who doesn’t even know the difference between a Property and a Law, and, as far as I can tell, have never even heard of The Distributive Law, given they keep talking about the Property
But putting that aside, that’s not a proof of PEDMAS.
Right, it’s a proof of the order of operations rules for Brackets 🙄
If PEDMAS is an actual law
It isn’t, it’s a convention
There are proofs for 1+1
It’s true by definition. There’s nothing complex about it. Just like ab=(axb) is true by definition
if PEDMAS is a law
It isn’t, it’s a convention. Not sure how many times you need to be told that 🙄
or an textbook snippet
You mean like textbook snippets stating that The Distributive Law is the reverse operation to Factorising?? See above 🤣🤣🤣
