Default Sum - Sum < Zero ??? How is it? Bug in Excel formula?

Hi, I just found this "feature" at Excel formulas today.

Please, have a look at: http://danielgudang.multiply.com/journal/item/192
(in portuguese, but images show all)


Let me explain:


some cell C1 = sum (C2:C5)
some cell D1 = sum (D2:D5)
some cell E1 = sum (E2:E5)


A1 = C1 - D1 - E1
B1 = C1 - (D1 + E1)


A1 = B1 ??? Oh, not always!


Sometimes A1 will be +0, sometimes -0.


Really strange!
