Does python use the principles of BODMAS?

For example use division before multiplying and multiplying before addition and subtraction? 9 + 6 / 3 = 11 whereas (9 + 6) / 3 = 5

It uses PEMDAS I guess. Where P is parenthesis and E is exponentiation.

In programming languages you have to care about the order of far more types of procedures than in maths class. What you need to look for is the term 'operator precedence'. For Python, you find it here (scroll down quite a bit): https://docs.python.org/3/reference/expressions.html
