abcdxyz123 bah!
augend + addend = summinuend - subtrahend = differencemultiplier * multiplicand = productdividend / divisor = quotientdividend % divisor = reminder
#arithmetic
what if the operand names for addition and subtraction were consistent with multiplication and division though?
addend + adder = sumsubtrand - subtractor = difference
programmified?
to + adder = sumfrom - subtractor = difference
but then
to + added = sumfrom - subtracted = difference
and it's not at all consistent anymore, unless
by * multiplied = productby / divided = quotent
which seems bleh
