Memorize the order of operations using the acronyms "PEMDAS" and "BEDMAS". Practice using the acronyms with order of operations word problems and...
In our exploration of the order of operations we focus on the following claim: "In the conventional order of operations, division should be performed before multiplication." This initially surprising claim is based on the acronym BEDMAS, a popular mnemonic used in Canada to assist students in ...
A common technique for remembering the order of operations is the abbreviation (or, more properly, the acronym) "PEMDAS", which has been turned into the mnemonic phrase "Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally". This phrase stands for, and helps one remember the order of: ...
The reason is this: while BODMAS/BEDMAS tells us that D has a higher priority than M, the PEMDAS rule actually considers M and D to be of the same priority (similarly for A and S). If there are multiple such operations, we need to process them left-to-right. So here we'd do 2...

And now the order of operations is clear. The values of A, op+ and A.op+ are resolved by the compiler and have no side effects so we'll ignore those. The other operations are resolved in order from left to right. So first we compute F(1), then we compute F(2), then we comput...
