Where a lot of people go wrong with PEMDAS is assuming multiplication is always done before division when it's not and using the same principles you would to solve an algebraic formula to solve a simple math equation where all the elements are already known

I had to do a lot of ******* math as a computer science major and used to be a tutor/teacher, I'm pretty confident in my knowledge of PEMDAS

 

[Coupé It]

I’m debating on whether or not to go back the read the pages following the last Lakers/Westbrook game.

But I feel the Russ guys just go missing and conveniently pop-up when they want

Unless your teacher/professor is Osh, you will never see an equation written like that in the wild. It’s just written so someone can correct you if you don’t follow BODMAS correctly.

Doesn’t matter. You ain’t eem seen the wire. Can’t trust you

I’m sick of watching him shoot

BODMAS

Doesn’t matter. You ain’t eem seen the wire. Can’t trust you

I've seen it. I haven't FINISHED it

WTH is BOMDAS???

Same as a computer engineering major. But the way it’s written is vague as hell. Technically both answers are right

 

[shotsrangout]

Ugh I graduated from college to never look at math again

get this **** outta here

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Both BOMDAS and PEMDAS sound/look dirty as hell

How’d you never watch The Wire but you knew that Sopranos reference a few weeks ago?

I feel like those two shows went hand and hand - as must watch.

 

[antidope]

I've seen the Wire but havent seen the Sopranos.

 

[Coupé It]

I've seen the Wire but havent seen the Sopranos.

Yea, but you’re weird.

You’re always the exception

 

[RustyShackleford]

It is 9

The take foul at half court is def a buzzkill. Tbh the defense should be penalized more than just a regular foul for that considering they prob turned the ball over while the opposing team has a huge advantage to score... only to be whistled dead

In Europe it’s 2 shots and the ball back, that’s the easy fix …Fans wanna see oops and dunks on the break not that bs

 

[antidope]

You’re always the exception

I was gonna start it in December

Samsies.

The problem isn't PEMDAS. The problem is how it was presented. I'm going to petition meth for a formula editor. We need a clear numerator and denominator like below.

Even without it, I would have written 6/(2*(2+1)) or (6/2)*(2+1). If you're an engineer and don't convey it like that or enter it into your software like that, someone could die being off by that magnitude. Depending what type of engineer you are of course.

Didn't want to divulge this: but I haven't seen either

If there was a downvoting here, I would understand

I got the Sopranos reference because you only needed to watch the first episode to get it
I haven't finished either of them but I'm much farther in the Wire than the Sopranos

Come on brah. You gotta be able to handle a season with expectations and everything that comes with it. You just gonna read the posts after wins? lol

This. If you want the praise you gotta be able to take the disrespect too.
