Mathematical Notation in Data Structure – First of all we will consider various types of notations for writing mathematical expressions. there is the following set of operations.
Symbol Used | Operation Performed | Precedence |
---|---|---|
^ (Exponention) | Power | Highest |
* (Asterisk) | Multiplication | Next Highest |
/ (Slash) | Division | Next Highest |
+ (Plus) | Addition | Lowest |
– (Hyphen) | Subtraction | Lowest |
Note – In Some cases, we also use the symbol $, ** or ↑ as a power of a number. for simplicity, we will assume that a given expression contains no unary operation. we also assume that the operations on the same level of precedence are performed from left to right except for ^ which works from right to left.
