Problem Statement
When I use my physical calculator I can type 0,9*log(0.8)
And it displays
0.9 * log(0.8)
so I can fix any typo and run = for get results
But, doing so it runs log at the time you type it so it ruins your formula understanding and you must rethinking its typing hierarchy
i.e running this example -> 0,9*log(0.8)=
Expected behaviour about:
Actual behabiour:
Proposal
As you can se If you want the expected behabiour you must compute log(0,8) while typing as: 0.9*(0.8log)
so, this changes the way formula is represented and its behaviour is so counter intuitive it turns out to be unusable.
In my honest opinion you could disable this behaviour or enable "after type" computation so it lets you write a formula and compute result only when you hit =
If possible, I would like to implement this.
I'm just suggesting this idea. I don't want to implement it.
