Dear All,

When I wrote the ImageJ (2.0.0-rc59/1.51j; java 1.8.0_66 [64-bit]) macro below, it return my area result as a string. Is this a bug or normal behaviour?

List.setMeasurements;
a = List.get("Area"); print(a);
a = a / a; print(a); //will return an error message that say statement cannot begin with "/"

Best Regards,
John
