HP Prime: complex numbers in CAS. - Alberto Candel - 12-06-2013

The CAS editor seems to have some bugs. If I type

 (1,2)

it displays the complex number

 1+2*i

but if type

 (1/3, 2)

it displays the vector

 [1/3 2]

with square brackets. If I copy and paste this into the editor line, the brackets disappear.

My settings are the default settings.

(a,b) notation is accepted in CAS (for compatibility) only if a and b are integers or floats, not for fractions or any other object type for real/imaginary part. Please use the standard a+b*i notation.
