- baddox 15y agoThe fact that infix notation removes the need to think about that is a bad thing, because infix notation is inherently ambiguous unless you litter the expression with parentheses or explicitly think about operator precedence and associativity. Infix notation just appears to be easier on the mind, because we're first taught arithmetic using it.
