(48g) (49g) (50g) Rectangular to Polar Coordinate Conversion [RPL]
Although these two little RPL programs will work on the HP 28C/S, they are intended for later RPL calculators such as the HP 48S and HP 50g which lack this capability. Both programs accept the input parameters in the form of a complex number and return the results as individual values into the stack.

Rectangular to Polar Coordinates:

<< DUP ARG SWAP ABS >>

Example: (3,4) --> 5 in stack level 1 and 53.13 in stack level 2 (degrees)

Polar to Rectangular Coordinates:

<< DUP DUP RE SWAP IM SIN * SWAP DUP RE SWAP IM COS * >>

Example: (5,53.13) --> 3 in stack level 1 and 4 in stack level 2 (degrees)
