    I learned negative as being a separate operation where we need to apply the order of operations. I think it was something like : -2 is a diminutive for -1x2 so it uses the order of operations of a multiplication.
    My calculator is the official one used in schools in France (ti-83 premium ce) and it says -2^2 = -4 with the negative key. I don’t think it would make a mistake in such a simple concept.

    But whatever these concepts can change depending on the field, country, level of education. What I mean is : it’s unclear, so use parentheses. So (-2)^2 or -(2^2) are the correct ways to write it.



  • Most company lawyers are only here to fight other company lawyers. Huge expensives company that do not profit anything to society.

    Most of the trading and investment world makes money for barely anything useful for society.

    Lobbying in a net negative for society financially and politically.

    Basically most corporate jobs are useless, they do not produce anything valuable for society despite bringing profit for their employee and owners.
