The use of parentheses allows you to control, or change, the regular order of operations. For example, if you have the expression 4 + 2 * 3, under the normal order of operations, you would perform the multiplication before the addition. To perform the addition first, you just add parenthesis so the expression reads (4 + 2) * 3 instead.
