  2. Operand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operand

    In the above example, '+' is the symbol for the operation called addition. The operand '3' is one of the inputs (quantities) followed by the addition operator, and the operand '6' is the other input necessary for the operation. The result of the operation is 9. (The number '9' is also called the sum of the augend 3 and the addend 6.)

  3. Common operator notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_operator_notation

    Left-associative operators are applied to operands in left-to-right order while right-associative operators are the other way round. The basic arithmetic operators are normally all left-associative, [1] which means that 1-2-3 = (1-2)-3 ≠ 1-(2-3), for instance. This does not hold true for higher operators.

  4. Order of operations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_operations

    The rank of an operation is called its precedence, and an operation with a higher precedence is performed before operations with lower precedence. Calculators generally perform operations with the same precedence from left to right, [ 1 ] but some programming languages and calculators adopt different conventions.

  5. Operation (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_(mathematics)

    An operation can take zero or more input values (also called "operands" or "arguments") to a well-defined output value. The number of operands is the arity of the operation. The most commonly studied operations are binary operations (i.e., operations of arity 2), such as addition and multiplication , and unary operations (i.e., operations of ...

  6. Operator (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operator_(computer...

    Most programming languages support binary operators and a few unary operators, with a few supporting more operands, such as the ?: operator in C, which is ternary. There are prefix unary operators, such as unary minus -x , and postfix unary operators, such as post-increment x++ ; and binary operations are infix, such as x + y or x = y .

  7. Arithmetic logic unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic_logic_unit

    The inputs to an ALU are the data to be operated on, called operands, and a code indicating the operation to be performed; the ALU's output is the result of the performed operation. In many designs, the ALU also has status inputs or outputs, or both, which convey information about a previous operation or the current operation, respectively ...

    Video: Keys pressed for calculating eight times six on a HP-32SII (employing RPN) from 1991. Reverse Polish notation (RPN), also known as reverse Ɓukasiewicz 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.

  9. Logical conjunction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_conjunction

    The and of a set of operands is true if and only if all of its operands are true, i.e., is true if and only if is true and is true. An operand of a conjunction is a conjunct. [3] Beyond logic, the term "conjunction" also refers to similar concepts in other fields:
