	x can be a scalar number, array or cluster of numbers, array of clusters of numbers, and so on.
	y can be a scalar number, array or cluster of numbers, array of clusters of numbers, and so on.
	r is of the same data type structure as x and y.

Re/Im To Polar Details

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

r = sqrt(x² + y²)

theta = arctan2(y,x) radians
