I can't paste a formula in. -((( 20 * 1.5 ) / 100 ) - 20 )

I'm unable to paste anything into the box.

@doggodanubus thanks for the feedback. This is by design, I believe it is to prevent the user from entering a query the calculator can't parse. FWIW, Google's calculator behaves the same way.

Seeing as the search box is on the page though, you can paste it there and re-query. If the syntax is valid, the calculator will trigger again.

This will be marked as tolerated and closed.
