I did not flip any signs, merely reversed the order in which the operations are written out. If you read the right side from right to left, it has the same meaning as the left side from left to right.
Hell, the convention that the sign is on the left is also just a convention, as is the idea that the smallest digit is on the right (which should be a familiar issue to programmers, if you look up big endian vs little endian)
If that’s your idea of reversing the order, then you’re not talking about the same thing as [email protected]. They’re talking about the order of operations and the associativity/commutativity property. You’re talking about the order of the symbols.
Right, because 1-2-3=3-2-1.
No, 1-2-3=-3-2+1. You changed the signs on the 1 and the 3.
You flipped the sign on the 3 and 1.

Yes you did! 😂
No, merely reversing the order gives -3-2+1 - you changed the signs on the 1 and 3.
Starts with -3, which you changed to +3
when you don’t change any of the signs it does 😂
Nope, it’s a rule of Maths, Left Associativity.
