angle(
angle( returns the polar angle of a complex number or list of complex numbers, calculated as tan
L1
(b/a), where b is the imaginary part and a is the real part. The calculation is adjusted by +p in the
second quadrant or Np in the third quadrant.
angle(a+bi) returns tan
L1
(b/a).
angle(re^(qi)) returns q, where Lp<q<p.
