Inconsistent sqrt syntax

[timokoesters]

√(2)×2 is 2√2, but
√2×2 = √4 = 2

I think multiplication should always be parsed as being outside of the sqrt.

Hmm this is a tricky one, because you would expect something like cos2x to be parsed as cos(2x) but sqrt2*2 as sqrt(2) * 2 I guess. Maybe it should make a distinction between implicit and explicit multiplication in this context? That's what Wolframalpha seems to do.

Your issues have been really helpful by the way. Thanks!

Even better, WolframAlpha differentiates between cos 2 x and cos 2x. I think leaving a space is the same as explicit multiplication

Oh yeah that makes sense. A bit trickier to parse, but should be possible
