Complex numbers always seem to be displayed using cartesian coordinates.
When complex numbers represent rotations and displacements in 2-D
then rotations are better displayed in polar form
and displacements in cartesian.
1ad45 NB. rotate by 45 degrees
0.707107j0.707107
I wrote a simple polar format verb because i couldn't find an !:
option that would help.
Is there a global setting that controls the display format of complex?
Thanks
David
