Okay, I think I've found the reason for the issue, and you're right; it is a duplicate. Basically, the calculator is viewing the *new input* and the *last answer* as separate numbers. Since no operator is specified, it is assumed to be multiplication between the two numbers. On this bug, for instance, I type
7 This works normally. 7 = 7; it correctly calculates that. Then I move my arrow key over to type a 12 before the 7 and the arrow keys right to type +7. However, where I am seeing 127 + 7 the calculator is seeing 12 x 7 + 7 Therefore, it calculates that 12 * 7 (84) + 7 = 91. It's the same issue on the duplicate; I'll explain in a comment over there. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1680438 Title: gnome-calculator comes up with totally wrong answer To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-calculator/+bug/1680438/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
