RE: Non-graphing calcs and Electrical Engineering.
Generally you only use complex numbers for "general purpose" analysis programs.
For everyday use, the standard reactance formulas "Xc = 1/2*pi*F*C" or reduced formulas like "1/2*pi*sqr(L*C)" for parallel resonance work just fine.

My HP41 worked fine with no complex support, and I rarely use complex numbers on my HP71 with MathPac.

After all, sliderules don't have a complex mode!
