minus-squareHotzilla@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up19·edit-214 days agoYeah if you put it: 100 - (100 x 0,1) = 90 90 + (90 x 0,1) = 99 It comes quite obvious. And I know the brackets are redundant, but my coder mind forces brackets to all math formulas for readability. Was it on purpose, maybe.
minus-squareBarqsHasBite@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up12·14 days agoI think of it as 100 x 0.9 = 90 90 x 1.1 = 99 Am I the odd one out?
minus-squarenomy@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·14 days agoYes. But also, Barqs does have bite.
minus-squareMacN'Cheezus@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·14 days agoEven 100 - 10% = 90 90 + 10% = 99 Works better than what he did, because that’s how you’d enter it on a standard calculator.
minus-squareBarqsHasBite@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down1·14 days agoUm you can type like that into a calculator?
minus-squareOCATMBBL@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·14 days agoReadability is important. I do the same thing, because just because something is technically correct doesn’t mean there isn’t a better way to do it. I’m very pro-bracket.
