Bug Description
Confirmed on:
- Ubuntu 16.04.1: gnome-calculator version 1:3.18.3-0ubuntu1
- Ubuntu 16.04.2: gnome-calculator version 1:3.18.
To reproduce the bug (have tried on multiple computers) do something along these lines in the gnome-calculator app:
- Press 7 and Enter. Screen should show 7 = 7, input field should show 7.
- Press left arrow and type 12, then the right arrow and type +7. Input field should show 127+7.
- Press Enter. Screen will show 127+7 = 91, input field will show 91.
No scientific modes or anything; this is in normal mode.

Thanks for taking your time to report this issue and help making Ubuntu better.
I can confirm this issue. I got the same strange result. I also found bug 1687053 but wasn't quite sure whether it should be marked as a duplicate or not.
