In each case, Calc added about two digits of precision during
its calculation and then rounded back down to 12 digits
! afterward. In one case, it was enough; in the the other, it
wasn't. If you really need @var{x} digits of precision, it
never hurts to do the calculation with a few extra guard digits.

@kindex v p (complex)
@pindex calc-pack
The @kbd{v p} (@code{calc-pack}) command can pack the top two numbers on
! the the stack into a composite object such as a complex number. With
a prefix argument of @i{-1}, it produces a rectangular complex number;
with an argument of @i{-2}, it produces a polar complex number.
(Also, @pxref{Building Vectors}.)

Convert the Calc number or formula @var{a} to string form, using the

not be re-readable by @code{read-expr}, for example, because of digit
grouping. Multi-line objects like matrices produce strings that
