SUMMARY
KCalc M+ button repeats last operation before adding to memory.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. 2 * 2 = (display now shows 4)
2. M+ (Display now shows 8)
3. MR
4. Memory stored value of 8

OBSERVED RESULT
Memory stores value after repeating operation

EXPECTED RESULT
Memory Store button stores currently displayed value, not repeating last operation (same as pressing equals button).

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: all
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: all
KDE Frameworks Version: all
Qt Version: all

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Is this a feature? I suppose I could just not press equals before M+.

Comment 1 Gabriel Barrantes 2024-06-07 19:09:48 UTC

Yes, it is an intended feature, doing the operation to store the result is unavoidable so prior to storing the calculation it gets done without the need to press "=". However the behavior might change slightly in future versions.
