Hello all, I’m “new” on this.
It may sound a stupid question but… I want to know why this two formulas give different results. I read both in the name way.
What is the difference between / symbol and : symbol?
I know one is for division and he other one may be for ratio, but here I am wrong assuming they are the same
In Mathematica the colon is reserved for optional patterns, it does not mean division. Try \[Divide].
Wolfram|Alpha reads the colon as a ratio, with a lower precedence with respect to the fraction symbol.
It is a serious discrepancy between the Wolfram Language and Wolfram|Alpha.
Understood. Thank you for your answer.
