In Microsoft Calculator, in both "Standard" and "Scientific" modes, entering an input sequence such as "3*-3" either using the on-screen buttons or via keyboard input will yield a result of "0" as the calculator will interpret this input as "3-3". This is because currently when the user inputs two different operators consecutively, the input will change to only the most recent one input. This results in it being difficult to multiply by negative numbers.
Currently, the only viable workarounds involve having to press the "+/-", or (if in scientific mode) use brackets. This vastly slows down the typing experience and adversely affects the user experience.
The issue can be reproduced by:
Entering any whole number
Pressing "*"
Pressing "-"
Entering an additional number
Pressing "Enter"
