P→R, R→P, Vector Arithmetic and HP-35

Hi all.

Yeah, Bill Hewlett wanted a shirt-pocket HP-9100.

Yes, Polar & Rectangular conversion can be done with trig & square root combinations. But if the objective was to put a 9100 in a handheld, why were polar/rectangular conversions omitted?

Yeah, I know. The team had 768 bytes to work with.
