    Use memory buttons to ensure that operations are applied in the correct order. Use the special buttons ± and 1/x, that do not correspond to operations in the formula, for non-commutative operators. Mistakes can be hard to spot because: For the above reasons, the sequence of button presses may bear little resemblance to the original formula.

  3. Order of operations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_operations

    [6] [7] [a] The parentheses can be omitted if the input is a single numerical variable or constant, [2] as in the case of sin x = sin(x) and sin π = sin(π). [a] Traditionally this convention extends to monomials; thus, sin 3x = sin(3x) and even sin ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ xy = sin(xy/2), but sin x + y = sin(x) + y, because x + y is not a monomial ...

  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. Shunting yard algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shunting_yard_algorithm

    To convert, the program reads each symbol in order and does something based on that symbol. The result for the above examples would be (in reverse Polish notation) "3 4 +" and "3 4 2 1 − × +", respectively. The shunting yard algorithm will correctly parse all valid infix expressions, but does not reject all invalid expressions.

  7. Infix notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infix_notation

    In infix notation, unlike in prefix or postfix notations, parentheses surrounding groups of operands and operators are necessary to indicate the intended order in which operations are to be performed. In the absence of parentheses, certain precedence rules determine the order of operations.

    On IBM PC compatible personal computers from the 1980s, the BIOS allowed the user to hold down the Alt key and type a decimal number on the keypad. It would place the corresponding code into the keyboard buffer so that it would look (almost) as if the code had been entered by a single keystroke.
