                      Working with comics? See Polar (Geometry).

                      Converts a complex number in its binomial expression to its polar expression, or vice versa.

                      Syntax

                      polar(Complex)
                      
                      polar(Real, Real)
                      

                      Description

                      Given a complex number z, returns a list: the first element is the radius and the second one is the argument.

                      Given two reals r and θ, the radius and argument of a complex number, writes it in binomial form.
