Bug Description
Binary package hint: gcalctool
When I try to compute (3 log 3+4 log 16)/(log 16+log 3) in the calculator, it says "malformed equation" at the bottom, even though the same equation simplifies fine on my graphing calculator. I'm using Ubuntu 9.04. I don't know anything bout software or stuff like that (my technological genius of a friend installed it for me and put wine and things like that on it), so I can't tell you what package I'm using since I don't know what that is. I expected it to give me the same answer as my graphing calculator. Instead it said "malformed equation".
