SUMMARY
A) As title states, Kcalc givers "Input Error" if you don't add a leading zero to a decimal number. It should probably just inject a leading 0 if a decimal doesn't contain one.

B) There's also an issue of it does not automatically using the output at the first number in a new equation if the user enters a mathematical symbol that may or may not be related to the issue.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
A) 1. Enter 1+.5 and hit enter

B) 1. Enter 2+2 and hit enter
     2. Enter +2 and hit enter

OBSERVED RESULT
A) Input error

B) 2

EXPECTED RESULT
A) An output of 1.5

B) 6
