  By all means, humiliate yourself by splitting that hair

  I’ll take that as an admission that you’re wrong then, given you can’t defend your wrong interpretation of it (which you would know is wrong if you had read more than 1 paragraph of the book!) 😂

    This is you admitting there’s no difference. You insist they’re not the same. How?

      Not difficult, I already did in another post. If a=2 and b=3…

      1/ab=1/(axb)=1/(2x3)=1/6

      1/axb=1/2x3=3/2=1.5

        That’s convention for notation, not a distinction between a*b and ab both being the product of a and b. ab means a*b.
