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: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
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?
