Polish notation, less frequently known as Prefix notation, is a form of notation for logic, arithmetic, and algebra. Its distinguishing feature is that it places
operators to the left of their
operands. If the
arity of the operators is fixed, the result is a syntax lacking parentheses or other brackets, that can still be parsed without ambiguity. The Polish logician
Jan Łukasiewicz invented this notation around 1920 in order to simplify
sentential logic.
