I thought power of should be left to right as well, but Wikipedia says otherwise:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_operations#Examples_from_arithmetic], see 2nd example.
So I guess technically you are correct, but I'm not sure if this really qualifies as a "bug". I mean it's not like they attempted to calculate this correctly and failed to program it right, I think they never even attempted to follow this rule.
