toPol
Function: Returns an equivalent polar form [
r
∠θ
].
Syntax: toPol (Mat [,natural number] [ ) ]
• This command can be used with a 1

2 or 2
×
1 matrix only.
• This command returns “
r
” when “natural number” is 1, and “
θ
” when “natural number” is
2.
• This command returns a polar form when you omit “natural number”.
