Hello Tony
The sense I get is:
L(+/-)D means the result can be L+D and L-D
L~D means (L-D) or (D-L) whichever results in a positive number.
And therefore
L (+/~) D means the result can be L+D and { (L-D) or (D-L) whichever results in a positive number }

Need help understanding them.
Thank you in advance.
