Take it up with Berkeley then

What for? You're only the second person ever to have quoted him. You're not the first person to refuse to look in Maths textbooks though 🙄

    I cannot stress this enough. If you have a problem with that, contact the author or Berkeley, not me.

    I cannot stress this enough - look in Maths textbooks, not random University blogs 😂

    You're the one commenting without reading Maths textbooks

    Go tell Berkeley I did that.

    You can stop humoring this broken robot. Especially when the context is 'yeah I already said this textbook is wrong, but I am better than you because you need to read this textbook.'

    They seem to believe that and on the 8th day God made the one true objective order of operations that all humans use and agree on.

    Except for that time the definition of division changed 130 years ago. Which is not a rule! It's notation, or syntax, or possibly sometimes a rule. Whichever one lets them sneer hardest.

    I tried explaining RPN to them a year ago. They still insist there's parentheses in it. Today they called it an "app."

    Dogmatic patience vampire is still trying to bait me into further wasted effort.

    Wowww. Insisting that they're good at math. I distinctly remember learning that RPN doesn't need parentheses in college.

    reverse Polish calculators do not need expressions to be parenthesized

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_Polish_notation

    But, you know, anyone can edit Wikipedia. Someone probably put that there who hasn't opened a math textbook.

    Oh of course. The sky isn't blue unless that's written in a maths textbook.

    And if you look up and see stars, it's still blue, because it's written in a maths textbook! Are you saying a teacher could be wrong?!, smug emoji, crying emoji, roll-eyes emoji?
