Operation symbols in mathematics refer to the symbols used for calculation between numbers, including simple operations such as plus sign, minus sign, multiplication sign and division sign, as well as advanced operations such as power, root and logarithm, but brackets are not operation symbols, but only auxiliary symbols of operation order.

Priority of operation symbol:

1. If there is only addition and subtraction or only multiplication and division, it is calculated from left to right. For example, 2+ 1- 1=2, first calculate the number of 2+ 1, and then subtract 1 from the number of 2+ 1.

2. If primary operation and secondary operation exist at the same time, the secondary operation is calculated first.

3. If there are primary, secondary and tertiary operations (i.e. power, root and logarithm operations) at the same time, first calculate the tertiary operation, and then calculate the other two levels.

4. If there are brackets, count the numbers in brackets first (no matter what level, count first).

5. The third level should be counted in brackets, and then the second and first levels should be counted.
