But there are software differences in how calculations are done: some software evaluates x/y/z as (x/y)/z while other software as x/(y/z). With mixed decorations, basic calculators evaluate left to right while more advanced ones use operator precedence. This can be a cause of real confusion, but you can always get what you want by placing brackets.
In higher maths it continues, by the way: if you order the nodes in a tree, and a is a descendant of b, is a < b or b < a in the ordering? Both conventions are used.
