Calculated field into DB does not behave as expected

[innovation.lab.fr74]

hi - I am capturing 2 slider’s values - each of one in separated field, and the sum of both in another field.
Basically I am storing:
Slider’s A value * 4
Slider’s B value *4
Slider’s A value * 4 +Slider’s B value *4

Anyone would expect that the calculated would be equal to the sum of each first 2 values… which is not at all. And I don’t understand why. I am surely doing something wrong… HELP ME !

Thanks

You might want to take a look at this thread. It helps explain how Bubble handles operator precedence , it discusses a workaround, and it mentions plugging that should sort you out.

Order of operations

Parenthesis would be really nice to have

Thanks Patricia - seems like I am not the only one stumbling accross the weird calculation processing bubble has implemented. I’ll try the work arounds from the thread you mentionned.
