Math statement parsed weirdly
Alright, so I was testing out my math parser with just a completely random statement, below:
3+3/3*2423-234/234/234-234*3-4+(4-2/4)-34
Now, when I type it in to my calculator and google, I get the same result: 1,689.49573
From Google:
3 + ((3 / 3) * 2 423) - ((234 / 234) / 234) - (234 * 3) - 4 + (4 - (2 / 4)) - 34
However, I don't understand why the ((234 / 234) / 234) - (234 * 3) - 4 + (4 - (2 / 4)) part is in its own parenthesis. Order of operations states that operators are done in the order that they occur in, right?
So.....shouldn't it be
Code:
3 + (3/3*2423) - 234/234/234 - 234*3 - 4 + (4-2/4) -34
Maybe I'm just confused....my math parser gives the following postfix output:
Code:
3.000000
3.000000
3.000000
DIV
2423.00000
MUL
ADD
234.000000
234.000000
DIV
234.000000
DIV
SUB
234.000000
3.000000
MUL
SUB
4.000000
SUB
4.000000
2.000000
4.000000
DIV
SUB
-34.000000
ADD
which gives me -30.5
-edit-
Or...wait....Ok, I just retyped it in to my calculator and am still getting the same answer, so there must be an error in my infix->postfix evaluator...*wanders off*
