To be pedantic, 10% = 0.10, which is has no unit, so it can't be added to a dollar amount.

- jraph 7y agoSure, but 25 + 10% = 27.5 for: - Soulver, according to the screenshots (and the goal of this project seems to match Soulver's behavior), - the calculator on my phone, - KRunner, the launcher in KDE, and KCalc, its calculator - gcalc, the Gnome calculator - qalc, that shows "25 * (110 * percent) = 27,5". - The TI-106 solar calculator that I happen to have [1]. Thinking about it, we are probably talking about some kind of "+ %" operator, where x + y % = x + x × y / 100. Interestingly, 10% = 0 for the TI-106 (but 25*10% = 2.5). % alone does not seem to mean anything for it. This little calculator will probably outlive me.
