             Bug #: 50596
           Summary: "-" takes precedence over "^" contradictory to the
                    mathematical convention.
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: medium
         Component: Spreadsheet
        AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: ido...@gmail.com


When entering "=-3^2" I receive a result of "9". It should be "-9" as the power
operator takes precedence over the minus operator, even when the minus operator
is unary.

This bug appears to be "inherited" from MS-Excel for conformity?
