I believe you can do tan-1(slope) if you're in degree mode.  I believe the
arctangent function has range (-pi/2,pi/2), but that's all the slope can be,
unless it's a vector.  Then, if you have it stored as a complex number, you
could use the angle( function.

By the way, why is the TI-86 OS so much different than the prime calcs?  It
can use = as the assignment operator, does complex numbers in (a,b) form
instead of a+bi, etc.

Does anyone know how to convert the slope of a graph to degrees on a 0-360
circle?
