Calling Sequence

simplify(expr, polar)

Parameters

expr

-

any expression

polar

-

literal name; polar

Description

• 

The simplify/polar function is used to simplify complex-valued expressions by applying the identities

polara,brpolarar,rbifrisreal

rpolara,bpolarra,bifrisreal

polara,bpolarc,dpolarac,b+d

polara,c+polarb,±cpolara±b,c

  

Furthermore, a sum of polars with numeric arguments is combined if at least one term has floating-point arguments.  For more general sums of polars, use evalc.
