Some folks might think: “you still use RCS”?!? And we will say, hey, at least we switched from SCCS to RCS back in … I think it was around 1994 ... at least we are keeping up! :-) :-) :-) Logs say that SCCS version 18 became RCS version 19 on 1994 March 18. RCS served us well. But now it is time to move on. And so we are switching to git. Calc releases produce a lot of file changes. In the 125 releases of calc since 1996, when I started managing calc releases, there have been 15473 file mods!

NAME
|
|
polar - specify a complex number by modulus (radius) and argument (angle)
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
polar(r, t [, eps])
|
|
|
|
TYPES
|
|
r real
|
|
t real
|
|
eps nonzero real, defaults to epsilon()
|
|
|
|
return number (real or complex)
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
Returns the real or complex number with real and imaginary parts
|
|
multiples of epps nearest or next to nearest to r * cos(t) and
|
|
r * sin(t) respectively. The error for each part will be less
|
|
than 0.75 * abs(eps), but usually less than 0.5 * abs(eps).
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
|
; print polar(2, 0), polar(1, 2, 1e-5), polar(1, 2, 1e-10)
|
|
2 -.41615+.9093i -.4161468365+.9092974268i
|
|
|
|
; pi = pi(1e-10); eps = 1e-5
|
|
; print polar(2, pi/4, eps), polar(2, pi/2, eps), polar(2, 3*pi/4, eps)
|
|
