Subject: Another question about Calc (was: Two short questions about calc)

Hello,

when I change the language to LaTex in Calc (d L), then

  ' 1 + 1 / 2

==> 1

I.e. the expression is interpreted as (1 + 1) / 2 contrarily to the
mathematical convention.

I know Latex a bit, but never heard that it calculates...like that.  Is
this behavior expected?  Does it make sense in some way?


Thanks,

Michael.
