I have been trying to figure out how best to run multiple maths operations on a list of numbers and so far I have to run the operation on 2 numbers and then use that result in the next operation and so on.
Maybe the block can be changed to have a gear function that allows you to add multiple operations in the same block.
You’ll need to provide more details about the operation. Can you give a specific example of values you might start with and intermediate calculations?
It sounds like you might need a recursive function.
Use blocks inside the block… like this

Here’s an example of a simple sum that works for any list length:
I’m adding 0 to j to make it a numeric value (rather than a text string) but you could apply other calculations there such as 2*j, etc.
Will try this. Thanks.
Question is, does this follow PEDMAS principles.
It will depend upon how you arrange you blocks… consider each block as a bracket … that’s how I got it work. Please let’s know what do you discover.
Yes, that’s good advice. So this:
would be the same as this:
(1+(1x(1+1)))
And that would follow PEMDAS since the innermost blocks/parentheses are calculated first.
