And what do you do with and and the b and then the a and the c?

BTW, there's no "the a and the b" and "the a and the c", there's ab and ac, which need to be added. If a=2, b=3, and c=4, we have 2(3+4)=(6+8)=14

Hello all. I am giving a talk next week about making the most of the Fediverse, particularly for dotnet/MAUI developers. The first speaker is talking about creating a MAUI app from scratch. Of course, I shall be talking about our Lemmy MAUI Community, :-) but also other things, like accounts to follow, how to use Lemmy from Mastodon (follow/reply/post), etc. You can attend online. The times shown are GMT+11, and work out well for those in Europe but not so well for the U.S. (first speaker on at midnight-ish PST). I believe there'll be a recording available afterwards, but of course watching live gives you the opportunity to ask questions at the time. Hope some of you can check it out.

Oh! I guess I should also say SMASH THAT DOTNETMAUI SUBSCRIBE BUTTON! 😂

My mom’s a mathematician, she got annoyed when I said that the order of operations is just arbitrary rules made up by people a couple thousand years ago

I'm not surprised. Here's the proof of the order of operations rules. Also, the equals sign wasn't invented until the 16th century, so only 500 years old at most (the earliest references to order of operations are over 400 years ago).

It's totally clear. It's a number divided by a factorised term, as per The Distributive Law and Terms.

[-] SmartmanApps@programming.dev 1 points 2 years ago

It's the first, as per The Distributive Law and Terms. It could only ever be the second if the 6/2 was in brackets. i.e. (6/2)(1+2).

[-] SmartmanApps@programming.dev 1 points 2 years ago

Indeed it was already solved more than 100 years ago. The issue isn't that it's "ambiguous" - it isn't - it's that people have forgotten what they were taught (students don't get this wrong - only adults). i.e. The Distributive Law and Terms.

I finally fixed up the MAUI/VS upgrade issues, recloned, added my code back in one part at a time, and the bug came back so I've now narrowed down where the issue is - it happens when I try to use a HorizontalStackLayout in my TitleView on Windows. This code absolutely was working in 8.0.3, and still works on Android in 8.0.6. (I haven't tried 8.0.7 yet cos I wanted to keep everything exactly the same as before whilst I added code back in seeing if the issue came back). Anyone have any ideas about this one?

Yeah, base ten really screws around with programming. You specifically have to use a decimal type if you really want to use it (for like finance or something), but it's much slower.

Also noted that you've declined on taking on that bet I offered.

[-] SmartmanApps@programming.dev 1 points 2 years ago

In fact you're not allowed to add the multiplication - it breaks up the factorised term, hence gives a different answer.

[-] SmartmanApps@programming.dev 1 points 2 years ago

The rule is you're not allowed to add dots (multiplication) - broke up the factorised term, which is why a different answer.
