  1. Validate numerical entries
tedsanders commented 10 years ago

All browsers are handling non-numerical entries differently. IE11 doesn't allow nonnumbers. Chromes allows nonnumbers. Firefox allows nonnumbers but turns box red.

Oh well. I haven't seen anything break. I'm gonna remove it from 2.0 milestone but leave this as an open issue.

Hmm. Actually alphabet characters don't break things, but on some browsers numbers+alphabet characters do. Chrome is ok though.

Putting nonnumbers in can also break the graph. Slices will be invisible when you type numbers back in.

Wolfram is so underrated. I just built a natural language parser API in a couple lines of code. Go check out the link. It understands strings like "five plus pi * 4"

Hmm, not smart enough to understand roman numerals. Which Wolfram|Alpha understands.

tedsanders commented 10 years ago

Hmm, also does "pi" but not "e"

Wolfram validation looks amazing, but I'm afraid it may not be around in 10 years. Plus I'm lazy. Shelving for 3.0. Also fixed numberical validation bug where it was validating for integers instead of floats. Not sure when that happened, but it's fixed now.
