It was thus said that the Great Luke Emmet once stated:

You should be able to throw any simple arithmetic calculation at it,
including brackets, scientific notation etc. It will try to help you out
if you feed it nonsense or invalid input. It doesn't have any inbuilt
functions like sine, or mathematical constants like e, i, pi though. So
it's kinda basic, but fun.

So at first, I tried:

3*2+1

It failed, saying I needed to space the operands. Okay. I then tried:

3 * 2 + 1

And it still failed. I wonder if you aren't decoding the query properly.
