as a kid i thought those arrows pointed to heaven. seems this driver was with 5y/o me.

Here’s the pdf to the 4th edition.

What improvements did you make based on the book? I’m skimming through it.

Yeah! That’s why I mentioned it, it was a fresh ambiguous notation problem that I’ve never encountered before. Discussions of “is it 1 or 9” get tiring quickly.

At least WA and others tell you how they interpret the input, instead of being a black box (until you get to the manuals). Even though it is obvious in hindsight, I didn’t get why two calculators would yield different results; thanks!

Nice write-up.

Damn ragebait posts, it’s always the same recycled operation. They could at least spice it up, like the discussion about absolute value. What’s |a|b|c|?

What I gather from this, is that Geogebra is superior for not allowing ambiguous notation to be parsed 👌

unsure abou how often; I don’t do it because I have to meet a quota, it’s more of a I-can’t-hold-to-myself-when-I’m-✨bedazzled✨ kinda thing?

Although as others have mentioned, I don’t wanna sound creepy; for strangers it’s generally about a cool accessory they’re wearing. i verbalize the compliment by refering to their uniqueness, not intending to start a conversation just, “cool hat 👍”

interesting question, thanks!
