RE: Bug in converting complex numbers?
In general, trig functions on the Prime interpret any complex number as being in radians. For example, in degrees mode sin(30) is 0.5, but sin (30+0*i) is -0.988, even when a degrees sign is added after the "30".

I believe this is standard practice on calculators that support trig and exponential functions with complex arguments, so it should be viewed as a feature, not a bug!
