What is an "operation" in math?

OpenStudy (niahloves):

In its simplest meaning in mathematics and logic, an operation is an action or procedure which produces a new value from zero or more input values, called "operands".

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The order of operations is PEMDAS, Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiply/Divide, and Add/Subtract

OpenStudy (niahloves):

is it A,B,C or D?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's B & C, do you know why?

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

I don't agree with the "zero" part of that definition.
