fyroc58608yAny standard calculator will read left to right without worrying about order of operations. A scientific calculator will give you the correct results.

That's fucked :P Yeah i guess scientific mode fixes it, but even my phones stock calc app does this correctly, so...
-
shasha3448yThat's not wrong. It's just matter of interpretation. It makes calculations at every new insert. It does no parse expressions. Technically it should not show you 3+3*3 but just:
3+3 then
6*3 -
And that is the reason you don't calculate in there. Now find something worthwhile to work on

johnDoe32138yI'm just confused why they would even have an option to do standard vs scientific.... Like come on just use the scientific method over standard.

@shasha It's wron, by every mathematical law... This thing is therefore broken.

shasha3448y@vortexman100 no, UX is wrong not the calculation itself. If you take any retro pocket calculator it will do the same. And you know why? Because there are no expressions with more than one operator and it's not explicitly shown.
HAHAHHA Windows 10 calculator-
3+3*3 = 18
