KDE Frameworks 5.31.0 Qt 5.8.0 (built against 5.8.0) The xcb windowing system [Input] uname -a [Output] Linux looserof7 4.4.48-1-MANJARO #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Feb 9 22:17:50 UTC 2017 x86_64 GNU/Linux I have noticed that modulus operations weren't accurate, 7%3 = 0.21 (from krunner, considering that modulus operator gives percentage) steps to reproduce: open kcalc, step-1: Now select any mode from settings drop-down menu. step-2: Type in 13 % 2 and then press =, I get no answer. step-1: select Numeral System mode. step-2: type in 100 / 2 this equals 50 step-3: type in 13 % 2 this gives no answer, step-4: click on AC (Clear all), step-5: type in 100 / 2 (In my case this equals to 5,000) repeat steps 3 and 4: step-5: type in 100 * 2 (I don't get answer) What I mean to say is using Modulus operator is leading other calculations to be erroneous. Please fix this bug. Thank you.
Ah, this is an understandable misunderstanding :-). In kcalc, % is the "percent" operator, not mod! If you want the actual modulus operator, please use the "Mod" button found in both Scientific and Statistic mode (top row, just left of center). For more information on the "percent" operator, please see the manual: https://docs.kde.org/trunk5/en/kdeutils/kcalc/percent.html
I'm ain't changing this to unconfirmed, But please reconsider my comment and read it thoroughly, I have already mentioned that Modulus operator gives percentage, My problem is it isn't giving any results when I type in 13 % 2 in kcalc, I don't get any answer, but I get result for same from krunner.
@Looserof7, One aspect of your report was that "What I mean to say is using Modulus operator is leading other calculations to be erroneous." While "%" is not the modulus operator in kcalc, it WAS in fact causing subsequent calculations to be wrong. A one line patch to resolve this has been approved, and should fix the next version of kcalc that is released. Thanks for your report :-)
