1st project PEMDAS in Project? (both)

3:17pm Wed 28th Aug, Trisha S.

Hi, my partner and I were wondering as all samples provided only involved basic mathematic notation Will we ever get .ml files with more complicated notation that requires the use of PEMDAS, for example: 1 + 7 * 6 / 3, which should equal 15 with PEMDAS but 16 when read left to right.

I'm unsure of the acronym PEMDAS (suspecting it has the same meaning to the one I know, which is BOMDAS). As you do not have to check the validity of the expressions, you do not have to check or 'handle' the precedence of operators.
