  2. Shunting yard algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shunting_yard_algorithm

    In computer science, the shunting yard algorithm is a method for parsing arithmetical or logical expressions, or a combination of both, specified in infix notation. It can produce either a postfix notation string, also known as reverse Polish notation (RPN), or an abstract syntax tree (AST). [ 1 ]

  3. Infix notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infix_notation

    Infix notation is the notation commonly used in arithmetical and logical formulae and statements. It is characterized by the placement of operators between operands —"infixed operators"—such as the plus sign in 2 + 2 .

  4. Reverse Polish notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_Polish_notation

    Video: Keys pressed for calculating eight times six on a HP-32SII (employing RPN) from 1991. Reverse Polish notation (RPN), also known as reverse Łukasiewicz notation, Polish postfix notation or simply postfix notation, is a mathematical notation in which operators follow their operands, in contrast to prefix or Polish notation (PN), in which operators precede their operands.

  5. Calculator input methods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculator_input_methods

    To study how exactly the infix notation and postfix notation differ we used one of the very old HP calculators. I was wondering that when you worked for HP did you help develop some postfix calculators? Do you prefer infix notation or postfix?". Letters-General Questions Answered. woz.org.

  6. Operator-precedence parser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operator-precedence_parser

    In computer science, an operator-precedence parser is a bottom-up parser that interprets an operator-precedence grammar.For example, most calculators use operator-precedence parsers to convert from the human-readable infix notation relying on order of operations to a format that is optimized for evaluation such as Reverse Polish notation (RPN).

  7. Polish notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polish_notation

    Polish notation (PN), also known as normal Polish notation (NPN), [1] Łukasiewicz notation, Warsaw notation, Polish prefix notation or simply prefix notation, is a mathematical notation in which operators precede their operands, in contrast to the more common infix notation, in which operators are placed between operands, as well as reverse Polish notation (RPN), in which operators follow ...

  8. Order of operations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_operations

    Order of operations arose due to the adaptation of infix notation in standard mathematical notation, which can be notationally ambiguous without such conventions, as opposed to postfix notation or prefix notation, which do not need orders of operations.

  9. Binary operation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_operation

    Binary operations are sometimes written using prefix or (more frequently) postfix notation, both of which dispense with parentheses. They are also called, respectively, Polish notation ∗ a b {\displaystyle \ast ab} and reverse Polish notation a b ∗ {\displaystyle ab\ast } .
