onestcoder Posted May 3, 2009 Author Share Posted May 3, 2009 OK it doent like the string. Works like this: $x = 1.87 * 1.5 * 73 $x2 = 9.40 * 1.5 * 24 $x3 = 4.03 * 3 $x4 = $x + $x2 + $x3 $x5 = $x4 / 100 MsgBox(-1, $x5, $x5) Is there a way to write this on 1 line?

Moderators Melba23 Posted May 3, 2009 Moderators Share Posted May 3, 2009 onestcoder, Your maths syntax is very anbiguous. You should always clearly show, by the use of parentheses, the order in which the operators are to be applied - if not the compiler uses its own priority listing. From the Help File:When more than one operator is used in an expression the order in which things happen is controlled by operator precedence. The precedence used in AutoIt is given below. Where two operators have the same precedence the expression is evaluated left to right. From highest precedence to lowest: NOT ^ * / + - & < > <= >= = <> == AND OR e.g. 2 + 4 * 10 is evaluated as 42: 4 * 10 (equals 40) 2 + 40 (equals 42) As the * has a higher precedence than + it occurs before the addition. So your line should read:$x = ((1.87 * 1.5 * 73) + (9.40 * 1.5 * 24) + (4.03 * 3)) / 100 and then you get the "correct" answer!

Moderators Melba23 Posted May 3, 2009 Moderators Share Posted May 3, 2009 Yashied, My mathematics teachers of long, long ago taught me to use parentheses to avoid any possible confusion. The OP was confused - using parentheses removes the confusion. I just used more of them than you did! CodyBarrett, I have never come across "bedmas" before - I will try to remember it.
