Example 1: With flag –16 clear (Rectangular mode), (2,3) V→ returns 2 to level 2 and 1 to level 1.
Example 2: With flag –15 clear and –16 set (Polar/Cylindrical mode), [ 2 7 4 ] V→ returns 2 to
level 3, 7 to level 2, and 4 to level 1.
Example 3: [ 9 7 5 3 ] V→ returns 9 to level 4, 7 to level 3, 5 to level 2, and 3 to level 1,
independent of the state of flags –15 and –16.

Type: Command
Description: Stack to Vector/Complex Number Command: Converts two specified numbers into a 2-element
vector or a complex number.
The result returned depends on the setting of flags –16 and –19, as shown in the following table:
Flag –19 clear Flag –19 set
Flag –16 clear (Rectangular mode) [ x y ] (x, y)
Flag –16 set (Polar mode)
[ x  y ] (x,  y)
Access: !´ VECTOR → V 2 ( ´ is the left-shift of the Pkey).
Flags: Coordinate System (–16), Complex Mode (–19)
