  2. Order of operations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_operations

    Order of operations. In mathematics and computer programming, the order of operations is a collection of rules that reflect conventions about which operations to perform first in order to evaluate a given mathematical expression. These rules are formalized with a ranking of the operations. The rank of an operation is called its precedence, and ...

  3. Operator-precedence parser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operator-precedence_parser

    An operator-precedence parser is a simple shift-reduce parser that is capable of parsing a subset of LR (1) grammars. More precisely, the operator-precedence parser can parse all LR (1) grammars where two consecutive nonterminals and epsilon never appear in the right-hand side of any rule. Operator-precedence parsers are not used often in ...

  4. Operator associativity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operator_associativity

    In programming language theory, the associativity of an operator is a property that determines how operators of the same precedence are grouped in the absence of parentheses. If an operand is both preceded and followed by operators (for example, ^ 3 ^), and those operators have equal precedence, then the operand may be used as input to two ...

  5. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)

    Python is a multi-paradigm programming language. Object-oriented programming and structured programming are fully supported, and many of their features support functional programming and aspect-oriented programming (including metaprogramming [ 70 ] and metaobjects). [ 71 ] Many other paradigms are supported via extensions, including design by ...

  6. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Python syntax and semantics. A snippet of Python code with keywords highlighted in bold yellow font. The syntax of the Python programming language is the set of rules that defines how a Python program will be written and interpreted (by both the runtime system and by human readers). The Python language has many similarities to Perl, C, and Java ...

  7. Polish notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polish_notation

    Polish notation (PN), also known as normal Polish notation (NPN), [1] Ɓukasiewicz notation, Warsaw notation, Polish prefix notation or simply prefix notation, is a mathematical notation in which operators precede their operands, in contrast to the more common infix notation, in which operators are placed between operands, as well as reverse Polish notation (RPN), in which operators follow ...

  8. Shunting yard algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shunting_yard_algorithm

    If the symbol is an operator, it is pushed onto the operator stack b), d), f). If the operator's precedence is lower than that of the operators at the top of the stack or the precedences are equal and the operator is left associative, then that operator is popped off the stack and added to the output g).

  9. APL syntax and symbols - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APL_syntax_and_symbols

    Step 1 {of topmost APL code entered at left}) 4-5 = -1. Step 2) 3 times -1 = -3. Step 3) Take the floor or lower of 2 and -3 = -3. Step 4) Divide 1 by -3 = -0.3333333333 = final result. An operator may have function or data operands and evaluate to a dyadic or monadic function. Operators have long left scope.
