#4825 new defect

Non-numerical inputs (excluding constants) only throw errors when they are beside a digit in a mathematical operation when they should throw errors anytime they are typed

Bug Status: Unconfirmed

Description

Typing a letter alone (such as a,b,c,etc.) - other than "e" - in a mathematical operation will not produce a result/do anything. But, when we place a number beside that letter (say 4c, 8h+5, etc.), this results in a parsing error. We think that there should always be an error message that appears alerting the user this is not an acceptable input.
