Nooby Question

Hi, so in my plugin I have a tempban command, I want it to ban for days.
Which way would I use to make it days.

Code:java

(((args[1] * 60) * 60) *24)

or

Code:java

args[1] * 60 * 60 * 24

I'm not sure you have learned algebra yet

 

regardless, he should be using time/date format.

 

xTrollxDudex I have learned algebra T_T I was just wondering if the brackets were needed
CeramicTitan WTH is PODMAS in Aus we call it BIDMAS (Brackets, Indicies, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction)

 

KevyPorter
In Algebra, they teach order of operations(Well, actually in basic math as well..). That's why he asked.

 

KevyPorter
Your extra parentheses aren't needed...

 

KevyPorter

They're trying to say that Java math operations follow the same rules as standard order-of-operations in math.

Thus, in this case you don't need parentheses.

Finally! Someone that uses PEMDAS!

 

Really? That's a really misleading abbreviation

Please Execuse My Dear Aunt Sally, but you're mistaken!

 

Do you mean BODMAS? I'm from Australia and its what I learned...
