| 2026-03-16 00:09:53 +0100 | <jreicher> | And easily understandable bells and whistles, which is why it might be a good example. |
| 2026-03-16 00:09:36 +0100 | <monochrom> | PN is then just bells and whistles dressing up that stack API. |
| 2026-03-16 00:09:29 +0100 | <jreicher> | Yep, I got you. :) Phew. And I agree, that's nice. |
| 2026-03-16 00:09:08 +0100 | <monochrom> | The basic amortization example is a stack whose API has push, pop, multipop(n). multipop(n) worst case time is Ω(n), but amortized time stays O(1). |
| 2026-03-16 00:08:45 +0100 | <jreicher> | Do you mean the question induced is what is the amortized time? |
| 2026-03-16 00:07:17 +0100 | <jreicher> | I'm missing something that's probably obvious, sorry. :) I think I need you to spell it out. |
| 2026-03-16 00:06:48 +0100 | <monochrom> | PN. |
| 2026-03-16 00:06:43 +0100 | <jreicher> | You mean RPN can be amortized and PN can't? |
| 2026-03-16 00:05:49 +0100 | <monochrom> | A single input symbol may trigger an unbounded number of stack pops. This is a great recipe for disaster^W intresting amortized time! |

| 2026-03-16 00:04:52 +0100 | <EvanR> | PN becomes more efficient if your code uses right to left language |
| 2026-03-16 00:04:35 +0100 | <jreicher> | Not following, and I want to! |
| 2026-03-16 00:03:17 +0100 | <monochrom> | Nice, so PN induces a great question for amortized time! |

| 2026-03-15 23:30:00 +0100 | <EvanR> | I guess it's simple enough there's not much room for philosophizing |
| 2026-03-15 23:29:23 +0100 | <EvanR> | ok a calculator based on RPN is like a combination of programming language and UI in one |
