           Summary: kcalc allows to input multiple decimal points
    Classification: Applications
           Product: kcalc
           Version: 24.12.2
          Platform: macOS (DMG)

SUMMARY

I found out that in kcalc the multiple decimal points are permissible, even
though it is mathematically incorrect. It gives Syntax error when "123....1" is
inputted, however with "123.1.1.1" does some calculations.  I went over the
handbook for kcalc, however did not find any information behind this
calculation.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open kcalc
2. input 123.1.1.1 (makes the input equal to 1.231) + 123.1.1.1

OBSERVED RESULT

Does some calculations, producing 2.462

EXPECTED RESULT

It should output input or syntax error.
