This bug is rather severe in my opinion and I can confirm this behavior.
In addition, this could be fixed rather easily if one would introduce an
extra button/function to take the n-th root of a number and if the
argument should be negative it just checks whether the root is odd or
not.
That butto
While you are correct in saying that the odd roots will give a single,
non-complex answer I'm not sure how one would go about identifying the
odd roots in a reasonable, consistent fashion.
I would assume that the bracketed exponent is evaluated initially to a
decimal. For the most part you could i
It doesn't require imaginary numbers for odd roots, only even roots, is
a bug. The cube root of a negative number is defined, as is the 5th root
of a negative number, etc, so no need to implement complex numbers.

Not a bug, this would require complex numbers which are outside the
scope of gcalctool.

This isn't a bug so much as what would likely be a significant enhancement
request.
This would require the implementation of complex numbers in gcalctool.
A brief explaination:
fractional exponents are the same as exponentiated roots, (not sure if I
have the terminology right there). for example
