convert( expr, polar )
expr
-
(complex) expression
convert/polar converts an expression to its representation in polar coordinates.
The expression is represented as polar(r, theta) where r is the modulus and theta is the argument of the complex value of the expression.
This function can also be invoked directly as polar(expr). See polar.
