Inputs/Outputs

  • cdbl.png x —

    x can be a scalar number, array or cluster of numbers, array of clusters of numbers, and so on.

  • cdbl.png y —

    y can be a scalar number, array or cluster of numbers, array of clusters of numbers, and so on.

  • idbl.png r —

    r is of the same data type structure as x and y.

  • idbl.png theta —

    theta is of the same data type structure as x and y. theta is in radians.

    • This function converts the rectangular components to polar components using the following equations:

    r = sqrt(x² + y²) theta = arctan2(y,x) radians
