Suffix Notation


Description:

Suffix notation, also known as postfix notation, is a mathematical notation in which operators are written after their respective operands. In this notation, the order of operations is determined solely by the position of the operators.

Sample Sentences:

  • In suffix notation, the expression "2 3 +" represents the sum of 2 and 3.
  • One advantage of suffix notation is that it eliminates the need for parentheses to indicate order of operations.
  • Suffix notation is commonly used in stack-based computers and some programming languages.
