Comment on I dunno
ICastFist@programming.dev 1 month agoI think that ordering of calculation was taught around 5th grade back in my day (11yo)
Thanks for confirming. I probably sounded too condescending but I wasn’t sure if it was a false memory.
I loved math as a kid though, so I ran through the curriculum as fast as I could to get to the good stuff. I think having older siblings helped - it gave me a preview of more interesting material.
My memory is shit, it was apparently 27 years ago if you’re right but I have no recollection to when it was. But it’s like cycling: it’s simple and once learned you never forget it.
Now I’m learning how to weld. We’re learning Ohm’s law, which is the same as order of calculation: easy basic shit, a bit far in my memory but you never forget it. But others in my class are really struggling with it. I don’t get it.
U = I R so R = U / I and I = U / R. P = U I so U = P / I and I = U / P. U=Volt, I=Ampère, R=Ω(Ohm), P=Watt
This was first year in high school if I remember correctly.

Yeah, I’d say the same for central europe. 5th and 6th grade are when they throw a lot of math expression rules at you.
