Description Witold Cichecki 2014-01-31 12:43:21 UTC
OpenSuse 13.1
The Basic Calculator very often starts to be giving wrong numbers!!

On screen:
5400×2
After hitting enter calculator's answer is:
1036800
I press ctrl-z:
5400x2
hitting enter again:
2073600

After hitting ESC:
5400x2=10800 correct.

This might have something to do with ctrl-z sequence. I use it quite often.

It can also be a problem with copy&paste numbers. 
Maybe invisible characters messing with the equation.
