Package: wcalc
Version: 2.4-1+b1
Severity: normal


A result from a too large number:

    echo '8!^7!^6!' | wcalc -E -P0 ; echo $?
     = @Inf@
    0

The cryptic result isn't in the man page, at first I thought
"@Inf@" was an error message or coding bug; I eventually inferred 
that "@Inf@" was shorthand for "Infinity".

An experiment with the above result:

        echo '@Inf@-@Inf@' | wcalc -E -P0 ; echo $?
         = @NaN@
        0

"Not a Number" maybe.  Anyway the above results & behavior ought to be
documented.

(Love the easy and intuitive syntax of this program!)

Hope this helps...
