Wow! Even my old TI-81 knows how to do order of operations better than these chuckleheads.

Remember, none of us are stupid as all of us.

Order of operations is an arbitrary construct and should be treated as such

So how do they KNOW that PEMDAS is the correct order? Did somebody just decide that, or have they done rigorous studies?

I mean it’s just convention. We could use parens everywhere to make it explicit. Except for Batman .

I know it’s convention, but how do we KNOW that it provides the correct  answer?

Hey, as long as you follow the same convention writing it as solving it, you’re good!
