In maths, what does the 'O' in BODMAS stand for?

Okay, in maths I was always taught BIDMAS, like this:

Brackets
Indices
Division
Multiplication
Addition
Subtraction

But I've heard people talk about BODMAS, and I was wondering what the 'O' stands for? Is it just another word for indices?

It stands for "Of" as in- multiplication. The I, I believe was for indicies/exponents. Ok?

In my school it's pronounced as BEDMAS. The 'E' stands for exponents.

I've never seen the 'O' version before...but, it probably stands for order...or something like that.
