Bug ID: 114930
Summary: Add information about associativity and precedence of
operators to the help
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 6.1.0.0.alpha0+ Master
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Documentation
Assignee: [email protected]

The help has no information about associativity and precedence of operators.
This leads to confusion. Example: The formula =-3^2 in Calc can be interpreted
as =(-3)^2 as in ODF or OOXML standard or as =0-(3^2) as in common school
mathematic and in Writer. This leads to problems for the user. See e.g. bug
37271 and its duplicates.
Request: Add a section about associativity and precedence of operators as they
are defined in the standard for Calc formulas. And add a section with examples
how to write formulas, to get the behavior known from common school
mathematics. And add a section with examples to show the different syntax in
Writer.
