	Infix notation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Infix notation is the common arithmetic and logical formula notation, in which operators are written infix-style between the operands they act on (e.g.
		It is not as simple to parse by computer as prefix notation (e.g.
		In infix notation, unlike in prefix or postfix notations, parentheses surrounding groups of operands and operators are necessary to indicate the intended order in which operations are to be performed.

	Reverse Polish notation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Reverse Polish notation (RPN), also known as postfix notation, was invented by Australian philosopher and computer scientist Charles Hamblin in the mid-1950s, to enable zero-address memory stores.
		It is derived from the Polish notation, which was introduced in 1920 by the Polish mathematician Jan Łukasiewicz.
		Infix expressions are the form of math most people are used to, for instance 3+4 or 3+4*(2-1).

	Polish notation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		While the examples above use parentheses, one of the benefits of Polish notation is that, assuming the arity of each operator is known, parentheses are unnecessary: the order of operations is unique and easy to determine, provided that the expression is well-formed.
		Polish notation has seen wide application in Lisp s-expressions, where the brackets are required due to the arithmetic operators having variable arity.
		Polish notation is especially popular with stack-based due to its innate ability to easily distinguish order of operations without the need for parentheses.

	Evaluate mathematical expressions quickly and accurately
		Infix notation is a common way of writing expressions, while prefix and postfix notations are primarily used in computer science.
		Infix notation is the conventional notation for arithmetic expressions.
		It is called infix notation because each operator is placed between its operands, which is possible only when an operator has exactly two operands (as in the case with binary operators such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and modulo).

	Prefix, Postfix, & Infix Notation (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		In infix notation, the operation symbol is written between the two operands.
		Because the infix notation for the basic arithmetic and logical operations have been commonly used in ordinary mathematics, this notation has been widely adopted in programming languages.
		In prefix notation, the operator, precedes (comes before) the operands hence it is called prefix notation.

	Infix to Postfix
		In infix notation, the operator is written in between the operands it operates on as in the case of binary operators.
		In postfix notation, the operator is written after the operand/s it operates on.
		However, algorithmically, postfix notation are easier to evaluate than infix notation.

	Prefix and Infix Notation (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Prefix notation is a format that specifies that the operator comes before the words or topics to be used with that operator.
		Infix notation is a format which specifies that the operator is to be specified between each element within the expression.
		When infix notation is used, precedence is implicit within the expression; for example, the

		They are different from the infix and prefix notations in the sense that in the postfix notation, the operator comes after the operands, e.g.
		So, what is actually done is that the expression is scanned from the user in infix form; it is converted into prefix or postfix form and then evaluated without considering the parenthesis and priority of the operators.

		Prefix and infix notation By default, Verity uses infix notation, in which precedence is implicit in the expression; for example, the AND operator takes precedence over the OR operator.

		infix notation postfix notation (x + y) * 2 x y + 2 * x * 2 - (a + b) x 2 * a b + - (a + b) * (c + d) a b + c d + *
		Simply move the operator from the infix position to the postfix position (that is, move the operator from inbetween the operands to after the second operand).
		For complex expressions, the idea is to convert the simple sub-expressions into postfix notation and then treat each converted subexpression as a single operand in the remaining expression.

	Infix, Postfix and Prefix
		Infix, Postfix and Prefix notations are three different but equivalent ways of writing expressions.
		For example, the usual rules for associativity say that we perform operations from left to right, so the multiplication by A is assumed to come before the division by D. Similarly, the usual rules for precedence say that we perform multiplication and division before we perform addition and subtraction.
		Although Postfix and Prefix notations have similar complexity, Postfix is slightly easier to evaluate in simple circumstances, such as in some calculators (e.g.

	Syntax extensions and interpretation scopes (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		For printing a notation, a formatting box is opened in such a way that if the notation and its arguments cannot fit on a single line, a line break is inserted before the symbols of the notation and the arguments on the next lines are aligned with the argument on the first line.
		Notations with recursive patterns can be reserved like standard notations, they can also be declared within interpretation scopes (see section 11.2).
		In case a notation has several interpretations, the actual interpretation is the one defined by (or in) the more recently declared (or open) lonely notation (or interpretation scope) which defines this notation.

		Infix notation will attract more C and novice programmers than the LISP syntax.
		Yet in other places the notiation is inspired by LISP and hybridized with C. An example of the latter in the infix notation is the use of the # character as a dispatch prefix with a variety of uses.
		If there is adequate precendent in C for a specific infix notation, and it isn't manifestly brain-dead, let's use it and make the evolution of the C programmer to Dylan simple.

		Example: infix: 3 + 5 postfix: 3 5 + When reading 3 5 +, the computer saves the 3 and 5 until the + is found, and then it performs the addition.
		The infix expression requires some parentheses, but it does not have to be fully parenthesized.
		There are precedence rules for infix notation, so that if parentheses are omitted, it will still be clear as to which operators should be applied first.

		Among the merits of Hoare's notation is that it makes it easier for readers to spot opportunities for using algebraic laws of idempotence, associativity, symmetry, distributivity and so on.

		Section notation is sometimes used (as in Haskell) in connection with infix operators, especially the infix dot for composition.

		The identifier for the prefix expression is constructed by scanning the infix expression, replacing subexpressions by underscores, and including keywords unchanged.
		The infix declaration would typically be immediately followed by a real declaration, which can use either the prefix notation or the newly defined infix notation.
		The priorities and associativities of many of the infix expressions declared in the LARD standard library are taken from the operator precedence rules for C. The following tables show the values used.

		Infix operators are binary, and there is a simple syntactic translation that converts infix to prefix.
		Because REBOL supports infix notation, order of evaluation for infix operators may be controlled by parenthesis.
		Parenthesis are not specific to the infix operators, they can be used anywhere else as well, but the prefix notation of REBOL makes them superfluous (to the interpreter, at least.
