I hadn't thought about the issue of fractional results but yes, they need as much precision as can be provided.
I'm not sure why the 'show trailing zeros' option was set to on on my machine (and hence this issue thread) but I can't seem to shake the notion that rendering the appropriate level of precision should be something that happens automatically. Other calculators (physical or software) don't seem to have this issue. Having it as a controllable option seems more like a patch over the problem. -- Too many sig figs (1-2 = -1.000000000) !! https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/216420 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gcalctool in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
