Right now 5-2 or 5/2 can be pasted into the calculator and it will solve it.
However, if 5 % 2 is pasted, it errors.
However, typing 5 % 2 works just fine.
Similar to issue #299.
1) copy 5 % 2 to the clipboard
2) paste in the calculator
3) the message _Invalid input_ appears
1) copy 5-2 to the clipboard
2) paste in the calculator and press enter
3) the correct value of _3_ shows
This is your friendly Microsoft Issue Bot. I've seen this issue come in and have gone to tell a human about it.
I am interested to work on this enhancement, i already took a look at the code and found the potential areas of code that need to be changed
Thanks, @Ahmed-Yossef! We certainly appreciate you taking a look at this one. If you have the chance, take a peek at #299 too (the solution _might_ be similar).
@grochocki sure i will have a look too at #299 while fixing this one.
@Ahmed-Yossef Let me know if you have time to work on a fix, otherwise, I already have a PR ready for #299 (very similar to this one) I can adapt to also a fix for this issue.

@rudyhuyn
Yes Sure .. No Problem you can do the PR.
I would like to work on this. Is there a scope to work on this or someone is almost done with this ?
Hi @akshaydeep06, a PR is already available for this issue (#682).
Feel free to take a look at it and share feedback!

Thank you to everyone that contributed to this. This will be useful for people wanting to get a quick solution when it's on the clipboard. Currently, (3+2) * ((3-1)/2) works but soon with %,^ added most of the core operators are supported. eg. (3+2)^2 * ((3-1)/2) % 4 . Really awesome and thanks again!
