Nicky it can go either way. It all just has to be done in a modular fashion according to order of operations. If you were to append further functions to your current operation you'd find that encapsulating the 5 with the exponent within the parenthesis would be a bit limiting when you get into the more complex statements. This way you only focus on one term and its immediate functions.


I take it these exponents have some other function in this riddle, though

it obviously depends what sort of a calculator you're using

I hate maths

We should start a 'math haters' support group here Jenny? I'm with you honey.

Oh... Head hurts just by thinking of math...

I like math

Open a new thread, title "No maths!"

(I like maths)

My first post in that thread would be an incredibly complex equation

Yeah... And you'll get a lot of love for that...
Don't mess with us ! (people with math-headaches)

I'm a math major.. I love math.

It's just notpron maths I hate. Because I usually ended up doing it wrong;)

Sorry but I still don't get what's there to love about math, it's SO boring...

I have a number obsession. I love numbers. Especially the number 15.

And when you throw letters in with numbers I get a high like no drug could ever give me.

I like numbers, too

Maybe my choise of arts over math is related to the fact that in high school math class had almost no girls and in art class it was almost all girls... Hmm...

I didn't have any choice. I'd rather skipped arts ...
