NO. Not if I enter it in a specific order. 1x2 = 2 2+5 = 7 7x50 = 350 Not 252! That is how a calculator should work when you are typing in the calculation by *hand*! I shouldn't have to worry about precedence then. This app is supposed to replace the calculator I can buy for $10. And that is how it should work. Remember, we are working with hand entered calculations that go into the app in a certain order, and *that* is the order that it should be calculated...
