: This seems to be about infix to RPN but it doesn't say it explicitly. --[[User:Dgamey|Dgamey]] 04:00, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

:Hi Dgamey, from the wikipedia article:
::''"In computer science, the shunting-yard algorithm is a method for parsing mathematical expressions specified in infix notation. It can be used to produce output in Reverse Polish notation (RPN) or as an abstract syntax tree (AST)."''
:The title reflects that it is this shunting-yard algorithm that is to be used in transforming infix to, in this case, RPN. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 09:07, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
