According to my grammar school teachers, no. I do recall on math tests, I sometimes made two errors that canceled each other out, though. And I can think of another exception too. Sometimes a person has given me wrong directions, but I followed them wrong, and ended up in the right place.

In the criminal justice systems, two wrongs make a non-event...as if neither wrong happened. When you make illegal drugs, and the cops search your home without permission, or a warrant, they violate your rights, and can't use the evidence they find. Without the evidence, they can't convict you, so you get away as if you never had the drugs to begin with.

Wrongs in whose eyes? Things are not just right and wrong, there are shades and a larger picture to weigh for what is wrong or right. The American revolution was not right or wrong on a micro level, but the larger picture was right.

two negatives make a positive, but two wrongs don't make a right unless you're Really lucky.

Some times. I thought of school instantly...how people can fail a class twice then pass it the third time. Therefore yes, it works out in that case!

learn from your mistakes.
meaning, after your first mistake you must learn from it.
never repeat the same mistake. it makes you stupid and moron.
that is why on the third time, you must make it right.
never waste your life doing always the wrong thing.
ok?

NO certainley not. But sometimes a wrong compensates another one.
