Thanks for the report and working to make ubuntu better! However, I believe this is invalid since 2e-2 is 0.02 2e-2 = 2*10^-2 = 2*.01 = .02 ** Changed in: gcalctool (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- gnome-calculator not giving expected results: 2e-2 is not 0.02 ... https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/483730 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gcalctool in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Confirmed, gcalctool is confused and is doing the following: 2e2 = 2*10^2 = 200 2e-2 = 2*e - 2 = 3.44 (e = eulers number) ** Changed in: gcalctool (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => Triaged ** Changed in: gcalctool (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium -- gnome-calculator not giving expected results: 2e-2 is not 0.02 ... https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/483730 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gcalctool in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
