Description Rich Burridge 2006-10-30 16:29:51 UTC 
The documentation for operations like "square root" is
incorrect when the user is in arithmetic operator precedence
mode. In order to do the square root of 5, the actual sequence 
of commands that they have to enter is:

   Sqrt(  5  )  =

There are probably several other similar operations that need 
to be formatted this way.

(Originally filed as bug #328524).
