I think this is why I started the thread. I may have to be cooped up with her for a couple of months. I may just go into the back room and shove the x-box on.
Try computer code. Multiply by 0 and you'll get a field filled with a 0. Divide by zero and the ****er will give you an error the size of Cuba and possibly self combust.
You have to do the multiplication first. The same equation with brackets to enforce the BODMAS order would be 20 + (4x4). You're simply wrong. I was struggling to explain why, that's all.
BOM?
It's ok, The Tactician has provided the go to answer :angel:
At what stage? I use it quite regularly, which is why I know I'm correct :wink: but she insists she's never heard of it. How the frick do you get an A if you're applying the operational order wrongly? Maybe she just got quadratic equations :moo:
One for the nerds and mathematicians out there.
Simple equation. 20+4x4
Deliberately no brackets. Type that with an = in front in Excel and you get what it, to me, the correct answer, 36. Mrs GB insists it is 96 because that's what you get when you type it into a calculator - obviously this is...
