MHB Drawing and finding the value of postfix expression

Click For Summary
In the discussion about evaluating a postfix expression, it is clarified that ending with no operator means there are two values, 1000 and 160, without a way to combine them. Participants confirm that 1000 and 160 are indeed the final values. The correctness of the drawn Binary Tree is also affirmed. The conversation emphasizes the importance of having an operator to connect values in postfix notation. The conclusion is that without an operator, the final output remains as two separate numbers.

Yes you end up short one operator, so you have nodes containing 1000 and 160 with no operator to join them.

So 1000 and 160 is the answer. And did I draw the Binary Tree right?

Thread 'A variant of the Monty Hall problem'

There is a nice little variation of the problem. The host says, after you have chosen the door, that you can change your guess, but to sweeten the deal, he says you can choose the two other doors, if you wish. This proposition is a no brainer, however before you are quick enough to accept it, the host opens one of the two doors and it is empty. In this version you really want to change your pick, but at the same time ask yourself is the host impartial and does that change anything. The host...
