programming problem

[Alan Wiliams]

Good evening. Working in the field of programming, I communicate with many programmers, and sometimes I have the opportunity to see how they work and what their code consists of. And there was an opinion that if we include distributive groups and inverted members in parentheses, then the priority of operators is not arbitrary at all. It looks as if a person was too lazy to do the job well and fully. Who else thinks so?

Hello. Many people agree with you, because they, like you, have verified from their own experience what happens when the work is done poorly. I might not know these nuances, but I read here https://ohhaskme.com/54106/operator-precedence-is-not-at-all-arbitrary a detailed situation on the same issue. And the answers were quite convincing even among pupils and students.

Mathematics is a very cool thing and that is why it is worth learning and using. Therefore, I advise you to understand the problem and look for a solution on various forums and sites.
