Because every single textbook you’ve cited, I absolutely guarantee it… was written in the past!

But being used in schools right now, and you're desperately trying to twist my words around to mean something else because you can't find any textbooks which say juxtaposition, except for one from 1912 🤣🤣🤣

How shall we make sense of this conundrum?

You're the only one who has issues with understanding present and past tense dude, you're the only one trying to use a 1912 textbook in the argument.

“I never use drugs” doesn’t mean the same as “I am not using drugs at the moment”

Yes it does, because "I never use drugs" isn't the same as "I have never used drugs" 🙄

So yeah, you absolutely said the wrong thing

I absolutely didn't Mr. I can only find it in a 1912 textbook 🤣🤣🤣

your reason for using it is stupid.

says person trying to bring a 1912 textbook into the argument only to avoid admitting having been wrong 🙄

If you were any kind of reasonable person and not someone incapable of admitting the slightest mistake

So not like you, which I'm not 😂

you would have said, “oh, sorry, I meant that textbooks don’t use the word ‘juxtaposition’ any more”

It's already there in the use of the present tense

Mate, try and keep track. We’re talking about a specific calculator and its specific manual.

And it specifically says you are wrong 🙄

Your calculator is not relevant to that one.

So when you said all, you didn't really mean all, so an admission that you were wrong about "all". Got it. Thanks for playing. Glad we're done with the "basic" calculator topic then

“Says person lying” is your favourite

statement of fact

deflection

says person talking about calculators that don't have brackets because he's absolutely proven wrong about The Distributive Law, and is trying to deflect away from admitting being wrong about that 🙄

the calculators we all had in primary school, If you press the following sequence of buttons: 2 + 3 x 5 =, the answer it will give is

17

even though they can make scientific calculator modes work correctly!

Nope! They don't! With the exception of MathGPT, they all ignore The Distributive Law, you know, the actual original topic 🤣🤣🤣 The Windows calculator in Scientific mode says 8/2(1+3)=16, because, when you type it in, it changes it to 8/2x(1+3). It's hilarious how you just keep making easily proven wrong statements and bring more embarrassment upon yourself, instead of just, you know, checking facts first 🤣🤣🤣

Sharp calculator obeying The Distributive Law

Note that neither MathGPT, nor the Sharp calculator, forcibly add in a multiply sign where it doesn't belong. Welcome to dumb programmer who has forgotten how The Distributive Law works and didn't bother checking in a Maths textbook first.

yet there’s such a simple explanation! They’re emulating basic four-function calculators that have existed for decades

No they're not! Just like they're also not emulating Scientific calculators that have existed for decades! 🤣🤣🤣
