Title:
logn(x) parsed as log(n)(x)
Status in gnome-calculator package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
"logn" is common notation for log base n, e.g. log2(x) is log base 2
of x.
gnome-calculator appears to always parse this notation as log(n)(x).
So, log10(2) is log(10)(2) = 2, rather than log10(2) ~= 0.301.
Arbitrary bases are already supported if the base is input as a
subscript. But, typing the base without subscript is common enough
that it should be accounted for. gnome-calculator should at least
show an error like "function 'log10' is not defined," to avoid
silently reporting incorrect results.
Ubuntu 17.10, gnome-calculator 3.25.92.
