[20] [21] The acronym PEMDAS, which stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction, [22] is common in the United States [23] and France. [24] Sometimes the letters are expanded into words of a mnemonic sentence such as "Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally". [ 25 ]
Mathematical abstraction began as a process of extracting the underlying essence of a mathematical concept, [91] [92] removing any dependence on real world objects with which it might originally have been connected, [93] and generalizing it so that it has wider applications or matching among other abstract descriptions of equivalent phenomena.
But as a general rule, if a series of operation contains a mix of additions and subtractions, then doing it from right to left will likely give you the wrong answer. So forcing the "left to right" rule will guarantee the right answer in the general case. Dhrm77 10:49, 23 August 2023 (UTC) I've added another reference.

In computer science, an operator-precedence parser is a bottom-up parser that interprets an operator-precedence grammar.For example, most calculators use operator-precedence parsers to convert from the human-readable infix notation relying on order of operations to a format that is optimized for evaluation such as Reverse Polish notation (RPN).
To find a more natural extension, one or more extra requirements are usually required. This is usually some collection of the following: A continuity requirement (usually just that x a {\displaystyle {}^{x}a} is continuous in both variables for x > 0 {\displaystyle x>0} ).
Video: Keys pressed for calculating eight times six on a HP-32SII (employing RPN) from 1991. Reverse Polish notation (RPN), also known as reverse Łukasiewicz notation, Polish postfix notation or simply postfix notation, is a mathematical notation in which operators follow their operands, in contrast to prefix or Polish notation (PN), in which operators precede their operands.
Mathematics education in the United States varies considerably from one state to the next, and even within a single state. However, with the adoption of the Common Core Standards in most states and the District of Columbia beginning in 2010, mathematics content across the country has moved into closer agreement for each grade level.
