Hi, I recently bought an HP50G, and I'm having trouble figuring out how to get numbers from the stack into a complex number. Could anyone help?

For example, for 1+2i, I know I'd enter it as (1,2). But when I have something like 6^0.5+2i, I don't want to type the numbers out.

Thanks

Edit: I'm using RPN mode. I've tried a few searches and haven't come up with anything.

I got it figured out. I needed to use HIST > ECHO to select an item from the stack.
