To convert, the program reads each symbol in order and does something based on that symbol. The result for the above examples would be (in reverse Polish notation) "3 4 +" and "3 4 2 1 − × +", respectively. The shunting yard algorithm will correctly parse all valid infix expressions, but does not reject all invalid expressions.
Calculator input methods: comparison of notations as used by pocket calculators; Postfix notation, also called Reverse Polish notation; Prefix notation, also called Polish notation; Shunting yard algorithm, used to convert infix notation to postfix notation or to a tree; Operator (computer programming) Subject–verb–object word order
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.
Polish notation (PN), also known as normal Polish notation (NPN), [1] Łukasiewicz 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 ...
Infix notation is a method similar to immediate execution with AESH and/or AESP, but unary operations are input into the calculator in the same order as they are written on paper. Calculators that use infix notation tend to incorporate a dot-matrix display to display the expression being entered, frequently accompanied by a seven-segment ...
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).

I don't think the really long example showing how to convert infix notation to RPN really belongs. - Furrykef 15:12, 9 Sep 2004 (UTC) I disagree. As I was reading about the RPN stack algorithm, I was wondering if the best (easiest) way to write an infix notation interpreter is to convert from infix to RPN notation.
