Good call! Walter mentioned he should transfer some knowledge to Don in the matter. Walter, please let us know how we can plan this.

Don suggested that the polar representation is very seldom used so we may as well throw it away. I like it because it illustrates how library is more flexible than built-in...

Is anyone working, or planning to do work, on std.complex?  If not, and
if it is desirable, I could take a look at it. I guess the main thing
that is needed is to add overloaded operators. Is there anything else?

Also, I wonder: How do you feel about renaming "modulus" and "angle" to
"mod" and "arg"? I seldom hear or use the term "angle" in relation to
complex numbers. "Argument" and "phase" are much more common, and the
standard mathematical notation for the argument of a complex number is
Arg(z). Also, "mod" and "arg" are nice and short, like "re" and "im".
